Nvidia Unveils NVLink Fusion, Enabling Use of Third Party CPUs, GPUs

Among other announcements Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO, made in a speech at the Computex trade show, he unveiled NVLink Fusion, a platform that allows customers to integrate non-NVIDIA CPUs or accelerators with NVIDIA's GPUs in custom rack-scale AI systems. 

The move allows chip designers, such as Marvell Technology and MediaTek, to use NVLink for high-speed chip-to-chip communication, facilitating the creation of powerful, custom AI systems. 

Customers can pair NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs with custom CPUs or AI accelerators, such as Qualcomm’s Snapdragon CPU cores, within NVIDIA’s ecosystem, for example.
