Analysis Arch-rivals AMD and Intel have put aside their animosity toward each other, and united against a common foe: Nvidia.

On Monday the pair revealed they are working on a chip family that will combine an Intel Core x86 processor, a customized AMD Radeon GPU, and HBM2 – high-bandwidth memory – all in one package. The silicon will, we're told, hit the market in the first quarter of 2018 in thin and lightweight notebooks, allowing them to, it is hoped, play top-end games.
