Nvidia are one of the very few conformant hardware vendors in regards to modern D3D graphics API support so it absolutely does make sense why they'd want to partner up with them in comparison to ARM /w Mali or IMG /w PowerVR ...There's an element with automotive where it made obvious sense. MediaTek are already have infotainment relationships and Nvidia's autonomy links into that. I can't see the same angle with chips for Windows laptops. Nvidia have relationships with those companies already.
