NVIDIA's Jen-Hsun Huang took the stage at CES 2014 and after covering a number of other NVIDIA innovations over the past year, NVIDIA unveiled its latest mobile chip. Not Tegra 5 -- NVIDIA appears to be dropping the five altogether -- but Tegra K1 (codenamed Logan). According to Jen-Hsun, one of the advantages of the Tegra K1 chip is that it offers the same programming capabilities as the conventional NVIDIA GK104 GPU. The Unreal 4 engine will be coming to mobile as a result, which makes sense, given the new core's capability. What's more impressive, however, is that the new mobile chip will comprise 192 Kepler cores, which is over a 2.5X increase from the current generation Tegra 4 SoC. The big news of the evening from NVIDIA was that we'd soon see two SKUs for Tegra K1 -- a quad-core Cortex-A15 32-bit chip at 2.3GHz with 192 Kepler GPU cores, or a dual-core Denver core at up to 2.5GHz and a whopping seven-way superscalar architecture...
