Nvidia will invest $5 billion in Intel as part of an agreement to jointly develop custom data center and personal computing hardware. Both companies would work to connect Nvidia and Intel architectures using Nvidia’s NVLink technology, with Intel set to build custom x86 CPUs that will integrate into Nvidia AI infrastructure platforms.
“AI is powering a new industrial revolution and reinventing every layer of the computing stack - from silicon to systems to software. At the heart of this reinvention is Nvidia CUDA architecture,” said Huang.
“This historic collaboration tightly couples Nvidia’s AI and accelerated computing stack with Intel’s CPUs and the vast x86 ecosystem - a fusion of two world-class platforms. Together, we will expand our ecosystems and lay the foundation for the next era of computing.”
Tan added: “Intel’s x86 architecture has been foundational to modern computing for decades - and we are innovating across our portfolio to enable the workloads of the future. Intel’s leading data center and client computing platforms, combined with our process technology, manufacturing, and advanced packaging capabilities, will complement Nvidia’s AI and accelerated computing leadership to enable new breakthroughs for the industry.
