About Bolt Graphics
Sunnyvale startup developing the Zeus GPU, a RISC-V based design for path tracing and FP64 HPC with up to 384 GB of LPDDR5X and DDR5 memory and 400 or 800 Gbps networking. It showed Zeus at CES 2026, announced tape-out of a TSMC 12 nm test chip in 2026, and reported test-chip physics results in October 2026; performance claims are the company's own and volume delivery is not expected before 2027 or 2028.
Bolt Graphics and is based in Sunnyvale, United States. It is listed under GPUs, HPC & AI Systems.

What Bolt Graphics works on
GPUs
A GPU, or graphics processing unit, is a chip with thousands of small cores that can run the same operation on a lot of data at the same time. It was first built to draw images in games. The same design suits any job that applies simple maths to large arrays of numbers.
HPC & AI Systems
High-performance computing (HPC) means using very large clusters of processors working together to solve problems that one machine cannot handle in a reasonable time. These clusters are called supercomputers. They run weather models, physics simulations and, increasingly, AI training.
