Nvidia has encountered a new hardware problem with its much-anticipated N1x Arm CPU, and this time it is a major one. According to multiple industry sources cited.
TL;DR: Nvidia’s first CPU based on the Arm architecture has been the subject of growing buzz, signaling the company’s ambitions to challenge dominant players like Intel, AMD, and Apple. But that move is now hitting serious turbulence. A newly uncovered hardware issue has forced another delay, and engineers are reportedly going back to the drawing board to resolve this latest issue.
Nvidia has encountered a new hardware problem with its much-anticipated N1x Arm CPU, and this time it is a major one. According to multiple industry sources cited by SemiAccurate, the issue may require a significant change to the silicon design. As a result, both the chip’s debut and shipping dates have been pushed back to 2026.
Nvidia engineers met a first significant issue earlier this year, but they were allegedly able to solve it without messing with the actual silicon design. The company previously claimed that the N1 and N1x chips had entered full production, which now appears to have been an overly optimistic assessment if the latest rumors leaks are accurate.
