Patents
they know x86 is dying
Because they don't want to step on Intel's toes. It's asking like why Chrysler doesn't make a car that's better than a Ferrari in every regard.

Because intel owns x86 and the only reason AMD can make x86 stuff is because the made a deal to share x86 when IBM said they wanted a second source for x86.
They should be able to sell a x86 CPU with MMX without any valid patent now, but who uses it in this 64-bit era.
Because intel wont let them

>better than a Ferrari in every regard.
It's called the viper ACR.
It's the world's fastest production car
Set 14 lap records
Beating cars like the p1, la Ferrari, and 918

Yeah but the thing is built like a Dart.

They are already stepped on Intel's toes with GPGPU

>intel owns x86
This isn't exactly true; all the patents for x86 have long expired and it's actually AMD who made x86-64 and hold the relevant patents. This doesn't mean that Intel isn't holding a lot of patents on various extensions and other PC related technology, though.
Nvidia could make a x86 CPU without asking anyone, but as others here have pointed out: Why would they?
It's interesting to note that Nvidia does indeed make a whole range of interesting CPUs called Terga targeting the mobile market (with little success).

They could make an x86 CPU on par with a Pentium 3 in terms of features. And no 64-bit. lol

Pentium II-tier CPU with no SSE, actually. P3 was released in 1999.
