Nvidia is challenging 20 years of datacenter CPU design with new Vera chip

Nvidia joins the battle of making the CPU interesting again
The big picture: Nvidia lifted the embargo on its Vera CPU deep dive this week, and the disclosure amounts to a direct challenge to two decades of x86 datacenter design philosophy. This is the most detail the company has shared on the chip since it first appeared on the Rubin roadmap, and it confirms something I have suspected for a while: Nvidia is not treating the CPU as an attach story anymore. It is treating it as a battleground with a lot of potential dollars at play.

Nvidia's Jensen Huang joins X, defends Chinese AI: "Open-source models that are excellent should be used"

Big quote: Jensen Huang just spent a week watching his company's valuation get hit by the threat of a Chinese open-weight model. His response was to go on the record defending it. Speaking to Axios in Fort Worth, Texas, at the opening of a new phase of the Wistron plant that builds Nvidia's AI infrastructure, the Nvidia CEO said American companies should "absolutely" be free to run Chinese models.

Nvidia has published its first native GeForce driver for Windows on Arm, and buried inside it confirms two RTX Spark configurations: a 6,144-core Blackwell GPU with a 20-core CPU, and a smaller 5,120-core variant with 18 cores, both supporting up to 128GB of unified memory. The driver targets Microsoft's Surface RTX Spark Dev Box for now, but it lets developers start porting Arm64 apps ahead of Spark's fall launch on laptops and mini PCs from Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and MSI.

Nvidia's RTX 3060 returns to store shelves at its original 2021 price

Facepalm: A "new" Nvidia graphics card has hit US and European retail stores. But it's not the RTX 5000 Super series, unfortunately: it's the five-year-old RTX 3060, and it carries the same price it did in 2021. The Ampere-era GPU has been slowly making its return since the start of 2026, a response to the memory crisis that has turned the industry into a nightmarish hellscape.

Jensen Huang's signed leather jacket could sell for up to $60,000 at charity auction

The auction estimate puts Huang's jacket in the same ballpark as some Nvidia AI hardware
In brief: These days Jensen Huang is better known for turning Nvidia from a beloved gaming company into a somewhat disliked AI supercorporation. But he used to get a lot of attention for his leather jacket. Now, one of those famed items of clothing is going up for auction, and it's expected to raise $40,000 to $60,000 – for charity, of course.
