The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
MLCommons[4] published the MLPerf Inference v6.1 results on 16 September 2026 - its GlobeNewswire release is datelined 'SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16, 2026' and stamped '11:00 AM EDT' - and NVIDIA's[2] post of the same day says the results were 'released today'.
NVIDIA's[1] product page for the benchmarked system: 72 Rubin GPUs and 36 Vera CPUs per rack, 20.7 TB of HBM4 at 1,400 TB/s, 3,168 Olympus CPU cores, sixth-generation NVLink, and one-tenth the cost per million tokens of GB200 NVL72.
Independent analysis of the round 'published September 16, 2026': Vera Rubin NVL72 was entered in the Preview category reserved for platforms due to ship by the next round, 30 organizations produced 486 results, and NVIDIA's[1][2] 30x AgentX figure is separate from, and not verified by, MLCommons[4].
MLCommons' own announcement of the v6.1 round, dated September 16, 2026: a record 30 submitting organizations, two new tests (End-to-End RAG and Edge Agentic Inference), up to 5.7x on DeepSeek R1 versus a year earlier, and 'NVIDIA[1][2] Rubin and NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 is in preview' among five new processors.
The GlobeNewswire copy of MLCommons[4]' release, datelined 'SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)' and stamped 11:00 AM EDT, which gives the publication time of the results.
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
