Nvidia Tegra 3 brings quad-core power to mobile devices

Pocket-Lint: The Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset has finally arrived, bringing with it the beginning of true quad-core, or in Tegra's case five-core, mobile processing power. The quad-core chip project previously went under the name of Kal-El.

The new Nvidia mobile processor features the first quad-core ARM Cortex A9 CPU designed to bring the maximum level of power and performance to a mobile device, with a fifth companion core for things like video and low power applications.
