- The CEO of Nvidia confirms the names of Blackwell Ultra and Vera Rubin
- Both should be revealed in GTC 2025 in March 2025
- Nvidia sees overall income increase by 114% in annual shift while AI demand
The CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, has piled up that the company’s next flagship chip will be presented in the coming weeks – as well as to apparently confirm its name.
Addressing analysts on the call for financial results of the company 2025, Huang revealed that the new equipment will bear the nickname of Blackwell Ultra and will be unveiled during its Nvidia GTC 2025 event in March 2025.
“Come to the GTC and I will tell you about Blackwell Ultra, Vera Rubin, then you show a click after that,” said Huang.
Nvidia blackwell ultra … and more
Huang added Blackwell Ultra will be officially launched in the second half of 2025 and will offer upgrades in processors, networking and memory – but will be built on the same system architecture as Blackwell.
Blackwell Ultra and Vera Rubin were both reached on a company’s roadmap document at Computex 2024, but Huang apparently apparently confirmed the name of the two.
Nvidia unveiled Blackwell to the GTC 2024, promising a major advance in terms of AI power and efficiency.
He has since seen a number of versions, including the first Blackwell “Superchip”, the GB200, which has the capacity to go from a single rack to an entire data center, while Nvidia seeks to continue its leadership in AI race.
Blackwell contains 208 billion transistors (compared to 80 billion Topper) in its two GPU matrices, which are connected by 10 TB / second of the chip link in a single unified GPU, which represents up to 30 FP4 power petaflops, well before something else on the market today.
Despite this, Nvidia says that Blackwell can reduce the consumption of costs and energy up to 25 times, giving the example of the formation of a parameter model of 1.8 Billion – which would have already taken 8,000 hopper gpu and 15 megawatts of power – but can now be done by only 2,000 Blackwell GPU only consuming four megawatts.
Vera Rubin is the next * not forward for Nvidia after Blackwell Ultra, with a release planned in 2026, with CPU and antipary GPU products, including a Vera Rubin card combining the GPU and the CPU in a “Superchip”.
Huang’s teasing came while Nvidia revealed its most recent set of financial results, the company again seeing record yields because it benefits from the enormous increase in AI demand.
Overall, NVIDIA’s revenues have more than doubled in annual shift, reaching 130.5 billion dollars for the financial year, an increase of 114%, largely helped by recording income from the 35.6 billion dollars center, up 16% compared to the previous quarter and up 93% compared to a year ago.
“Blackwell’s demand is incredible because the reasoning has added another law of scale – the increase in calculation for training makes the models more intelligent and increasing the calculation for a long reflection makes the answer more intelligent,” said Huang about the results.
“We have managed to accelerate the massive production of blackwell AI superordinators, making billions of dollars in sales in the first quarter. The AI is progressing at a light speed while agentics and physical AI have prepared the ground for the next wave of AI to revolutionize the largest industries. »»
