The reported price increases apply to systems built around NVIDIA's Vera Rubin and Grace Blackwell AI server platforms. The hikes are said to affect products based on those platforms for systems shipped starting early next year.

Pairing this new low latency, deterministic execution capability of Groq 3 LPX with Vera Rubin NVL72 racks enables multiple serving configurations, including:  Standard prefill-decode disaggregation: Vera Rubin NVL72 handles prefill and hands off the KV cache once per turn. Groq 3 LPX uses this KV cache, along with weights held in SRAM, to perform the entire decode step. Attention-FFN disaggregation: Vera Rubin NVL72 computes attention and holds the KV cache in DRAM, while Groq 3 LPX executes the FFN layers. Only intermediate tokens are sent between racks, once per full-attention layer.  Ext

NVIDIA DSX MaxLPS replaces static power provisioning with dynamic power allocation, using Dynamic Power Software (DPS) (currently in Developer Preview) to monitor and optimize power utilization within the data center’s fixed power budget. DPS is a comprehensive power management system that models the data center topology from the utility level down to racks, nodes, and GPUs. Operators define resource groups, power budgets, and policies that govern how power can be allocated, constrained, and enforced. Within those boundaries, DPS continuously compares allocated power against actual consumption

Yes. The primary article reports that SteamOS is now compatible with both AMD and Intel graphics cards, leaving NVIDIA as the only mainstream GPU maker not yet supported. The article also notes that NVIDIA is working with Valve to develop GeForce compatibility (see related article "Valve is working with NVIDIA to make GeForce GPUs compatible with SteamOS"). Answered
