Legal constraints meant it went to Arm

Nvidia’s Project Denver was supposed to be based on x86 tech, but things took a turn thanks to legal wranglings involving Transmeta’s Tokamak technology. Instead, Nvidia had to pivot to Arm, and the rest is history.

Ampere on life support?

The recent success of AMD’s 7nm 64 core Rome powerhouse is very bad news for ARM's server efforts. Over time, Calxeda and many others failed, and Cavium by Marvell and Ampere don’t seem to be better either. AMD is just jeopardizing last chances for all existing ARM players to make any meaningful footprint on the data center and server market.

Getting crowded, isn't it?

Nvidia appears to be the latest chip designer to use Samsung’s and GlobalFoundries’ 14nm node. The company won’t be alone, as the same node will be used by Apple, Qualcomm, AMD and of course Samsung.
