tricky situation.AMD and Intel has cross licensing for x86 and x86-64 architecture.
Previously, when AMD was in the gutter, they couldn't be outright bought out by Samsung or other semicon giants because the license to manufacture x86 CPUs was only to AMD and couldnt be transferred. If Samsung bought AMD out 15 years ago, Samsung would have gotten AMD without the x86 license from Intel which is no different than Samsung just opening up a new design firm on their own.
In this case, if Nvidia takes over Intel, I am not sure about how the x86-64 license will go for Intel as that is owned by AMD.
If it was a similar case as x86, Nvidia would have no reason to takeover Intel anyway.
Besides, their main business is GPUs and ARM CPUs at the moment.
No reason to take the risk
