It looks like Nvidia's AI inference GPU won't see the light of day this year, which could actually be good news for PC gamers

A promotional image for the Nvidia NVL144 CPX platform, with Nvidia Vera CPUs, Rubin GPUs, and Rubin CPX processors clearly shown.

Last September, Nvidia announced a new product to join its all-conquering collection of AI offerings, Rubin CPX. What made this GPU notable was that it was the company's first attempt at making a processor purely for AI inference. However, while Nvidia's Vera CPU and the other Rubin GPU are seemingly racking up the orders, it's all gone very quiet on the CPX front, and that's potentially a brief respite for PC gamers.

Korean publication The Elec drew my attention to this via a short report on the matter, claiming that sources have told it that the whole thing has ground to a halt. "The industry views the project as effectively cancelled," it writes.
