I think the only way NVIDIA could be competitive in the x86 space is if they some how manage to contract Jim Keller to design it. He might flatly decline the offer because of the obvious conflict of interest with AMD.
Additionally, NVIDIA's revenue is going to fall from $5 billion to $3.5 billion. They have to tighten their belt so starting a new, costly R&D project in a highly competitive market isn't exactly going to excite investors.
Jim Keller was merely a contract worker for AMD. The only conflict would be if he signed paperwork to keep him out of the x86 market.
