"Nvidia is investing $5 billion in Intel common stock in a collaboration that will see the pair "jointly develop multiple generations of custom data center and PC products." Nvidia says Intel will help build "x86 system-on-chips (SoCs) that integrate Nvidia RTX GPU chiplets." These chips will power a "wide range" of PCs, by closely integrating Intel's CPUs with Nvidia's GPUs. Intel and Nvidia already have a close partnership on many gaming laptops, but combining both on a single SoC is a big step further."
"Intel and Nvidia will also work together on connecting both their architectures via Nvidia's NVLink communications link system that's used in data centers to link GPUs together. "Intel will build Nvidia-custom x86 CPUs that Nvidia will integrate into its AI infrastructure platforms and offer to the market," says Nvidia. "This collaboration tightly couples Nvidia's AI and accelerated computing stack with Intel's CPUs and the vast x86 ecosystem - a fusion of two world-class platforms," says Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang."

The companies will connect architectures using Nvidia's NVLink and Intel will produce Nvidia-custom x86 CPUs that Nvidia will integrate into AI infrastructure platforms. The collaboration aims to strengthen competitiveness with AMD, raises questions about Intel's Arc graphics future, and follows recent US government and SoftBank investments; Intel stock jumped 28% pre-market.
