Key architectural highlights include a neural branch predictor, 10-wide decode engine, deep out-of-order execution with memory renaming and value prediction, and a graph prefetcher for pointer-heavy workloads. NVIDIA Spatial Multithreading (SMT) partitions resources more effectively than traditional SMT to reduce thread interference. The chip pairs 88 Olympus cores with the Scalable Coherency Fabric (3.4 TB/s bandwidth), 164 MB unified L3 cache on a monolithic die, and SOCAMM2 LPDDR5X memory delivering up to 1.2 TB/s aggregate bandwidth. Scale-up connectivity includes NVLink-C2C for dual-socket coherent operation, PCIe 6.4, CXL 3.1, and Confidential Computing via Arm CCA/RME — all aimed at maximizing CPU-side throughput in AI factory deployments. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
