NVIDIA has launched the Vera CPU, its first fully custom-designed processor built specifically for the era of agentic AI and reinforcement learning workloads. The Arm-based chip features 88 custom Olympus cores, high-bandwidth LPDDR5X memory, and NVLink-C2C connectivity optimized for orchestrating large-scale AI systems.
NVIDIA says Vera can deliver up to 50% faster software environment performance with twice the efficiency of traditional CPU infrastructure when paired with accelerated AI platforms.
The processor is designed to manage reasoning, memory coordination, tool execution, and real-time orchestration for autonomous AI agents operating at hyperscale. Vera will power next-generation Rubin AI systems across enterprise and cloud infrastructure environments beginning in 2026.
