NVIDIA Grace CPU C1 Arm Processor

NVIDIA Grace CPU C1 is a 72-core Arm Neoverse V2 processor designed for data centers, HPC, AI, and edge computing—not for consumer gaming

Built on TSMC’s 4N (4nm) process, it features four 128-bit SVE2 units per core for efficient vector processing

The CPU supports up to 480 GB of LPDDR5X ECC memory, delivering up to 500 GB/s bandwidth for memory-intensive workloads

NVIDIA’s Scalable Coherency Fabric (SCF) provides 3.2 TB/s bisection bandwidth, ensuring fast data movement between CPU, memory, and I/O

The Grace CPU C1 has a large 117 MB L3 cache to reduce memory latency in compute-heavy applications

Real-world performance gains include up to 2.3× faster microservices, 2× faster data processing, and 1.9× faster computational fluid dynamics compared to previous solutions

The CPU achieves over 90% STREAM Triad efficiency, demonstrating high parallel processing and memory throughput
