NVIDIA and MediaTek Are Reportedly Collaborating on a Gaming Handheld SoC and an Arm-Based AI Processor for PCs

NVIDIA and MediaTek appear to be working on multiple projects together that span from mobile to desktop applications. It was roughly three years ago that MediaTek CEO Rick Tsai announced the two tech giants were working together to develop an ARM-based processor for gaming laptops that would feature NVIDIA graphics. It now seems that the fruit of their labor is about to be revealed but that it won't just be for gaming laptops anymore but PCs in general and the part is rumored to cost around $300.

Can definitely see nVidia's influence here.

If 300 for the part alone, it won't sell. An arms laptop, aka a chrome book, with what OS? Tons of issues, plus expensive usually means little sales.
Isn't the seemingly abandoned Sheild arm based? What's the point of this thing really? Expensive arm laptops... I don't know. Maybe it will sell millions somehow.
