- Nvidia Vera CPU challenges AMD and Intel in data-center benchmarks
Tom’s Hardware found Nvidia’s standalone Vera data-center CPU delivered chart-topping Python performance and strong socket- and system-level memory bandwidth, aided by its C2C interconnect. Vera also matched or beat comparable AMD Turin and Intel Granite Rapids-AP chips in several general-purpose server workloads, though x86 processors retained an advantage in core density and some frontend tasks. The results indicate competitiveness for AI-adjacent workloads, but no standardized end-to-end agentic CPU benchmarks yet exist.

Oracle announced plans to bring the Arm AGI CPU to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure in fall 2027, targeting general cloud workloads and future agentic AI services. Ampere-based processors and NVIDIA Vera CPUs are already available on OCI, while Oracle also cited Arm support in Oracle Linux, Java, MySQL and cloud-native tools.

Supermicro launched the NVIDIA Vera CPU rack, a fully liquid-cooled system with 256 Vera CPUs that it says can provide 22,528 cores, 45,056 threads and support up to 22,500 parallel agent sandboxes. The rack can operate independently or pair with the Supermicro NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, and Supermicro also offers air-cooled 1U and 2U systems. Performance, scale and security capabilities described in the announcement are vendor claims.

NVIDIA and Oracle announced that Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and standalone Vera CPUs are generally available on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Superclusters. They also plan to expand the Rubin deployment to multi-gigawatt scale and offer an HGX Rubin NVL8 configuration with eight GPUs, a dual Intel Xeon 6 host and 4 TB of DDR5 memory. The vendors say CPU and GPU resources can scale independently for model training, inference and agent workloads; Tom’s Hardware separately benchmarked Vera on a non-OCI server, so those results do not independently verify OCI production performance.

A new Morgan Stanley report calls Microsoft's Maia 300 the most important new development at the OCP summit, saying Microsoft is scaling toward a multi-gigawatt target and expects to begin formal Maia 300 deployment in 2027; it names Foxconn and Wiwynn as possible ODM partners and, based on trial production, points to ISU Petasys for accelerator PCBs, Auras for fans and Fositek and Staubli for quick-disconnect connectors. The report also says NVIDIA VR200 racks have started small-volume production, Groq 3 LPX racks are expected between late 2026 and early 2027, standalone Vera CPU racks in late Q1 to early Q2 2027, and AMD's largely unchanged Helios platform should ramp racks in Q1 2027. On components, Morgan Stanley says timing for PTFE, next-generation interconnect and ZQD liquid-cooling connectors on NVIDIA MGX remains unclear, with PTFE promising better signal transmission and less reliance on Q-glass but facing processing complexity, cost and yield/certification risks.

In a Wccftech interview, NVIDIA’s Vera CPU team said the pursuit of higher core counts through chiplet designs had reduced single-threaded performance and IPC, while agentic AI workloads were prompting a renewed focus on sequential responsiveness. The team presented Vera’s monolithic design as a CPU optimized to coordinate agent workflows, including tool calls, reinforcement learning and sandbox execution; performance comparisons against Grace and leading x86 processors were vendor claims reported by Wccftech.

Pegatron said it will showcase its next-generation AI infrastructure design and manufacturing work at OCP Global Summit 2026 under the theme "Scaling Innovation for the AI Era," presenting how advanced AI platforms become mass-producible, deployable systems, racks and clusters. Its centerpiece is the rack-scale RA4803-72N3, a NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 platform combining 72 NVIDIA Rubin GPUs, 36 NVIDIA Vera CPUs and sixth-generation NVIDIA NVLink in a fully liquid-cooled rack-level design. Pegatron also plans to show a liquid-cooled NVIDIA Vera CPU system, NVIDIA Groq 3 LPX, the 2U fully liquid-cooled NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8 system AS210-2T1-8H3, and AMD EPYC 9006-based compute and storage platforms, all built around OCP standards including ORv3 busbar, DC-MHS and OCP 3.0 network cards.
