On September 18, 2025, NVIDIA unveiled a monumental $5 billion investment plan to acquire a stake in Intel, thereby securing its position as one of Intel's major shareholders. The two tech giants are set to embark on a collaborative journey to jointly develop cutting-edge AI infrastructure and personal computing products.

Under the terms of the agreement, NVIDIA has committed to subscribing to Intel's common stock at a price of $23.28 per share. In the realm of data centers, Intel will tailor-make x86 processors specifically for NVIDIA, which will then be seamlessly integrated into NVIDIA's AI infrastructure platform. Meanwhile, in the personal computing arena, Intel is poised to launch x86 system-on-chips (SoCs) that incorporate NVIDIA RTX GPU chiplets, ushering in a new era of computing power.

The collaboration will leverage NVIDIA's NVLink technology to achieve flawless architectural interconnection, effectively merging NVIDIA's prowess in AI and accelerated computing with Intel's advanced CPU technology and robust x86 ecosystem. This strategic alliance is designed to expedite the deployment of applications and workloads across hyperscale, enterprise, and consumer markets, ultimately co-creating the next generation of AI infrastructure and personal computing platforms.
