The Coolest Technology From Day 1 of CES 2026

Nvidia’s Rubin AI chip platform, offering up to five times AI inference performance, targets data centers and is adopted by major AI labs and cloud providers, CEO said.

  • On Monday at CES in Las Vegas, NVIDIA Corp. announced it has started `full production` of the Rubin platform, marking a major manufacturing milestone.
  • As the successor to Blackwell, the Rubin platform includes six chips, with the Rubin GPU spanning 336 billion transistors and the Vera CPU featuring 88 custom Olympus cores, while Nvidia says the Rubin GPU delivers five times AI inference performance.
  • Major AI labs including Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, and xAI are looking to adopt Rubin while Nvidia plans to pack hundreds of Rubin GPUs into servers and sell chips through server makers.
  • Nearly 90% of Nvidia's revenue comes from AI data centers, driving a memory chip shortage that raises GPU supply concerns and pushes up DDR5 RAM and SSD storage prices, while Nvidia prepares a GeForce livestream at 9 p.m. PST.
  • This year, CES is highlighting physical AI and edge agents, pivoting attention from cloud demos, spotlighting quantum computing via the CES Foundry, and featuring mobility in the West Hall automotive section.
