  • Samsung Foundry joins Nvidia to power custom CPUs and XPUs with NVLink Fusion
    October 18, 2025, 7:18 PM EDT. Samsung Foundry is partnering with Nvidia to design and manufacture custom CPUs and XPUs, expanding NVLink Fusion to span CPUs, GPUs, and accelerators. The move, unveiled at the 2025 Open Compute Project Global Summit, follows Nvidia's collaboration with Intel to connect x86 CPUs directly to Nvidia GPUs, and tightens Nvidia's grip over the AI hardware stack. NVLink Fusion is an IP and chiplet framework enabling high-speed, rack-scale communication among processors. Samsung joins Intel and Fujitsu in offering CPUs that connect directly to Nvidia GPUs, with Nvidia retaining control over communication controllers, PHY layers, and NVLink Switch licensing. While Nvidia deepens vertical integration, rivals like OpenAI, Google, AWS, Meta, and Broadcom are pursuing in-house chips to reduce dependence.
