In brief: Nvidia has been quietly using the RISC-V architecture to power numerous computing devices, and deploying a substantial number of cores to paying customers. In fact, the company is nearing a historical milestone in terms of RISC-V core deployments.
Nvidia has apparently been utilizing the RISC-V architecture for quite some time. As one of the most valued technology companies in the world, the GPU giant employs this open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) from the RISC paradigm in many of the custom, albeit “ancillary,” cores embedded within its GPUs.
