Intel uses Imagination for CPU graphics cores

This, it said, extends the licensing and deployment of graphics and video IP cores "in certain segments".

Intel also put £5.2 million into Imagination, representing 6,000,000 ordinary shares of its capital, and meaning INTC has a 2.9 per cent stake in the firm.

Imagination chief exec Hossein Yassaie explained that the companies will work together to put graphics and video capabilities into Intel microprocessors.

How far does the collaboration go? On this matter both firms were vague to the point of opacity. µ
