Nvidia's GTC 2026 conference is expected to cover several major announcements. Key topics include how Nvidia plans to integrate Groq's dataflow architecture (acquired for $20B) with its GPU stack to improve token throughput for AI inference workloads. The Rubin GPU generation will be highlighted, featuring up to 288GB HBM4 memory and 5x dense floating point uplift over Blackwell, though its ~1.8kW TDP may push buyers toward liquid cooling. The standalone Vera CPU, competing with Intel and AMD for datacenter use, is also expected to get more details. Future roadmap items like Kyber racks (600kW, 2027) and Feynman GPUs (2028, potentially exceeding 1MW/rack) may be previewed. Additional topics include OpenClaw/NemoClaw agentic frameworks, robotics via Isaac GR00T, Omniverse digital twins, and possible hints at Nvidia's Arm-based SoC for Windows PCs.
