Nexus tablet 9, which is preparing to release HTC and which should be replaced by a rapidly obsolescent Nexus 7 is a very interesting device. In the first place, because it is rumored that he will not use the regular version of the chip NVIDIA Tegra K1 c quad-core Cortex A15, but much more powerful 64-bit version, code-named «Denver». This version of the Tegra K1 has only two cores, but they are significantly more powerful than the conventional and are based on the superscalar architecture with seven-stage pipeline against the three-stage version of a classical K1. Significantly increased and the amount of all caches.
NVIDIA is so confident in the performance and energy efficiency of the 64-bit version of the Tegra K1, which deprived him of the support cost even nucleus. Moreover, the developers believe that Denver can compete in terms of performance with even if not the most powerful, but full-fledged desktop CPUs with architecture x86. In other words, Nexus 9 may be the most powerful tablet on the market, and, judging by the information that appears on the network, it would be really.
Employees of foreign news resource TK Tech News managed to get their hands on a very interesting screenshot utility CPU -Z, in its version for devices running Android. According to them, the utility was launched just a prototype Nexus 9, and a screenshot clearly indicates the use of dual-core 64-bit version of NVIDIA Tegra K1. We can see that the chip uses 28-nanometer process technology, has the same 192-nuclear graphics core Kepler, as his younger brother, and can vary the frequency of processor cores within a wide range, from 450 to 2500 MHz.
Unfortunately, other data on the Nexus 9 is extremely small, but even the available information is sufficient to call this tablet one of the most interesting solutions, preparing recently to release. With a price tag around $ 400, and four gigabytes of RAM on board HTC Nexus 9 can become a truly unique tablet until you catch up with other manufacturers.
