The first true Nvidia CPU has been benchmarked and found to beat, well, just about everything. The catch? While this is an independent test, Nvidia dictated the kinds of workloads that could be assessed.
We speak, of course, of Nvidia's Vera CPU, part of the company's upcoming nexty-gen Vera Rubin AI platform. Vera contains a CPU core known as Olympus, and the reason why it's the first "true" Nvidia CPU is because those cores were designed in-house by Nvidia to use the Arm instruction set. Previous Nvidia CPUs, such as Grace, used CPU cores designed by a third party, such as Arm itself.
