Nvidia is serious in the mobile cpu market and is all set to release its first quad core processor with an on-die 12 core gpu just like amd fusion.

Codenamed after kal-el, the new cpu will pack great punch. It surpassed a core 2 duo T7200 in benchmarks.

According to the roadmap, Nvidia is expected to launch Wayne in 2012. This will be followed by Logan in 2013 and Stark in 2014. Wayne will perform 10 times faster than the current Tegra 2 chip whereas Stark is slated to perform even greater at 100 times that of the Tegra 2 in three years.

Additionally, if you didn't get the super hero reference, the four Tegra processors are named after Superman (Kal-El), Batman (Bruce Wayne), Wolverine (James Howlett aka Logan) and Iron Man (Tony Stark).

If it surpassed T7200 in benchmarks, it means it is better than my T5500! Niiiicee!

Kal-el supports ultra-hd i.e 1440p. It will be 40nm and not 28nm. Wayne will get the 28nm treatment later. See HERE.
