In a 100-megawatt data center comparison, NVIDIA found that a single Vera CPU performs better than the fastest x86 CPU and the most energy-efficient x86 CPU.
What happened
NVIDIA says its Vera CPU combines fast agent performance with high capacity per watt. In a 100-megawatt data center comparison, NVIDIA reports 1.6x more agents per watt than the fastest x86 CPU and 2x faster agent speed than the most energy-efficient x86 CPU. Partner tests cited include Perplexity running agentic coding tasks 1.5x faster and Daytona bringing 1,000 agent sandboxes online in 10.8 seconds.
