Nvidia Unveils Rubin CPX GPU for Massive AI Workloads

Nvidia Announces Revolutionary Rubin CPX GPU Architecture

SANTA CLARA, CA – Nvidia has revealed its next-generation Vera Rubin micro-architecture currently in development, with the flagship Rubin CPX GPU scheduled for launch in late 2026. This breakthrough hardware targets artificial intelligence workloads requiring unprecedented context window processing capabilities.

Next-Generation AI Processing Power

At a recent press conference, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang stated: "The Vera Rubin platform represents a quantum leap in AI computing, introducing our new Rubin GPU architecture alongside an entirely new processor class we're calling CPX."

The Rubin CPX variant specializes in applications demanding processing of over one million tokens – critical for complex software development pipelines and high-definition video generation workflows. The announced Vera Rubin NDL144CPX GPU will deliver:

  • 8 exaflops of AI performance
  • 30 PF NVFP4 context computing capability
  • 3x exponential computation performance versus current GB300NVL72 systems
  • 128GB GDDR7 memory
  • Quad encoder/decoder configuration optimized for video generation
  • 100TB fast memory capacity

Building the AI Factory Infrastructure

Nvidia executives position the Vera Rubin NDL144CPX as foundational technology for constructing large-scale AI factories. To support this vision, the company will introduce comprehensive terascale reference designs for data center implementation.

"We're collaborating with infrastructure partners to completely reimagine data centers from computational first principles," explained Huang. "Our reference architectures will cover building design, simulation tools, and operational frameworks."

Performance Benchmarks Set New Standards

The announcement follows Nvidia's recent MLPerf inference test results where Blackwell GPUs established new records – particularly notable was surpassing baseline performance on the demanding Llama3.1405B interactive model.

The company's innovative "disaggregated service" technology enables existing hardware deployments to achieve improved performance metrics, creating additional revenue opportunities for enterprise clients.

Key Points:

🔍 Next-gen Vera Rubin architecture launches in 2026 with specialized CPX variant 🚀 Designed for million-token+ contexts with revolutionary memory/processing specs 🏢 Terascale reference designs will transform data center construction methodologiesBuilds on record-breaking MLPerf benchmark performances from Blackwell GPUs
