The spat between Nvidia and Intel has heated up. In a move to counter Intel’s case filing, the GPU maker has countersued Intel for breaching the chipset licensing contract. They claim the agreement is still valid for newer memory controller integrated CPUs including Nehalem and are also seeking to bar Intel from accessing Nvidia’s patent portfolio.
