ASUS Pro WS W890E-SAGE SE Motherboard Review
d-Matrix has announced it will integrate its next-generation XPUs with NVIDIA’s NVLink Fusion platform, a move that standardizes scaling for AI inference accelerators while giving NVIDIA additional interconnect and CPU socket wins. The core news, revealed this week, positions d-Matrix’s Raptor 3D-DRAM accelerator—first detailed at Hot Chips 2026—to scale beyond single XPUs into larger clusters using NVLink Fusion technology within MGX racks. The announcement also confirms d-Matrix will leverage NVIDIA Vera CPUs, ConnectX-9, BlueField-4 DPUs, NVLink switch trays, and Spectrum-X switching, replacing its earlier JetStream 400G Ethernet card approach for data-center-scale AI inference. By adopting NVLink Fusion, d-Matrix avoids reinventing networking on FPGAs and gains a rack-scale platform familiar to hyperscalers and neoclouds for deployment and maintenance. For NVIDIA, every d-Matrix customer win means a CPU socket that AMD, Intel, Qualcomm, and the Arm AGI CPU do not capture, along with the accompanying interconnect revenue. The partnership underscores d-Matrix’s growing momentum in the AI accelerator market, offering a standardized path to scale out generative inference workloads while deepening NVIDIA’s ecosystem lock-in.
