“Demand for Blackwell is amazing as reasoning AI adds another scaling law — increasing compute for training makes models smarter and increasing compute for long thinking makes the answer smarter,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA.

“We’ve successfully ramped up the massive-scale production of Blackwell AI supercomputers, achieving billions of dollars in sales in its first quarter. AI is advancing at light speed as agentic AI and physical AI set the stage for the next wave of AI to revolutionize the largest industries.”

The strong year-on-year and sequential growth was driven by demand for our accelerated computing platform used for large language models, recommendation engines, and generative AI applications. We delivered $11.0 billion of Blackwell architecture revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the fastest product ramp in our company’s history. Blackwell sales were led by large cloud service providers which represented approximately 50% of our Data Center revenue. Data Center compute revenue was $32.6 billion, up 116% from a year ago and up 18% sequentially, driven by demand for our Blackwell computing platform and sequential growth from our H200 offering. Networking revenue was $3.0 billion, down 9% from a year ago and down 3% sequentially. We are transitioning from small NVLink 8 with Infiniband to large NVLink 72 with Spectrum X. Networking experienced growth in Ethernet for AI, which includes Spectrum-X end-to-end ethernet platform, and NVLink products related to the ramp of our Grace Blackwell platform.
• Gaming revenue for fiscal 2025 was up 9% from a year ago, driven by sales of our GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs. Gaming revenue for the fourth quarter was down 11% from a year ago and down 22% sequentially, due to limited supply for both Blackwell and Ada GPUs.
• Professional Visualization revenue for fiscal 2025 was up 21% from a year ago. Professional Visualization revenue for the fourth quarter was up 10% from a year ago and up 5% sequentially. These increases were driven by the continued ramp of Ada RTX GPU workstations for use cases such as generative AI-powered design, simulation, and engineering
• Automotive revenue for fiscal 2025 was up 55% from a year ago. Automotive revenue for the fourth quarter was up 103% from a year ago and up 27% sequentially. These increases were driven by sales of our self-driving platforms.
