Provenance Record

Clean, well-sourced News article covering the first production Vera CPU deliveries. Good use of three complementary sources: NVIDIA Blog for the delivery narrative, NVIDIA Newsroom for technical specs, Tom's Hardware for the single-SKU and financial framing. Appropriate 'What We Don't Know' section acknowledging the limits of NVIDIA's own benchmark data.

All 3 sources verified from snapshots. source-0 (NVIDIA Blog): confirmed Ian Buck deliveries to Anthropic San Francisco, OpenAI Mission Bay, SpaceXAI Palo Alto (May 17) and Oracle Santa Clara (May 20), Bradbury 'Scaling compute is an important accelerant' quote, Batta 'hundreds of thousands' quote, Buck 'Agentic AI is creating a new CPU moment' quote. source-1 (NVIDIA Newsroom): confirmed Jensen Huang 'Vera is arriving at a turning point' quote verbatim, 1.2 TB/s memory bandwidth, 1.8 TB/s NVLink-C2C (7x PCIe Gen 6), 22,500 concurrent environments per 256-unit rack, Spatial Multithreading, Gallego 5.5x latency quote, Cazes TACC quote, Truell Cursor quote. source-2 (Tom's Hardware): confirmed 88 active cores, 91 total with 3 for redundancy, Ian Buck 'We only are going to build one Vera CPU [SKU]' quote, Jensen Huang 'multi-billion dollar business' quote. Note: Tom's Hardware source contains a likely typo referencing 'Intel' instead of 'NVIDIA' for the redundancy logic — article correctly uses NVIDIA.

All claims verified. Article correctly reports 91 total cores / 88 active (3 for redundancy) from Tom's Hardware. Jensen Huang quote about 'multi-billion dollar business' is accurate (source says 'multi-billion dollar business for us'). All performance specs (1.2 TB/s memory, 1.8 TB/s NVLink, PCIe 7x comparison) confirmed by NVIDIA Newsroom.

APPROVE: Well-sourced news article with all 3 sources verified and all key claims confirmed. Clean submission with no integrity issues.
