Announced
Grace's successor: 88 custom Arm cores for the Rubin platform.
You're looking at a chip record: what this processor is, its key specs, who designs, manufactures and supplies its parts, and where it gets used.
Vera, announced with the Rubin roadmap, moves NVIDIA from off-the-shelf Neoverse cores to custom Arm cores — 88 of them with simultaneous multithreading — and doubles NVLink-C2C bandwidth to 1.8 TB/s. It ships as half of the Vera Rubin superchip in 2026.
