Nvidia has finally taken the wraps off its 64-bit Denver CPU core — and, well, let’s just say that the 64-bit Android race just got a lot more interesting. The Denver CPU will be available later this year in the Tegra K1 SoC, where you’ll get two Denver cores and a 192-core Kepler GPU. Nvidia says this will be the first 64-bit ARM chip for Android, and that it “completely outpaces” other ARM SoCs (including Apple’s monstrous A7 Cyclone).
The Denver CPU is so beastly that it even beats out some PC-class chips (the low-end Haswell Celeron), while consuming much less power. The secret behind this performance boost is a novel technology called Dynamic Code Optimization.

It's good to know that soon there would be Nvidia device like the Shield Handheld and tablet, and phones and tablets with the power of a desktop PC because it has a Nvidia Denver chip in it.
 
I guess this makes desk top PCs one step closer to being useless.
