The numbers
What it is
NVIDIA's data center GPU and system business, the core of its revenue. Blackwell is the current generation and Hopper is the previous one. It is sold as GPUs, HGX boards and rack-scale systems to hyperscalers, AI clouds and enterprises.
Why it matters to the stock. Compute & Networking was 89.6% of FY2026 revenue. Guidance and the stock are driven by how fast customers take new racks, and by the China license status.
