Muscling into territory previously controlled by rising competitor AMD, Intel has struck a broad cross-licensing agreement with graphics chip maker nVidia. The result of the multi-year deal will be that nVidia can design its graphics chipsets to work with Intel processors. NVidia has seen its market share erode some in recent quarters, but analysts say it is still a major player and that its chips are sought by gamers and others who use graphic-intensive programs.
