It reported another quarter of record-breaking revenue, up 18% from a year earlier at $26bn. Data centre revenue is, once again, the jewel in the crown for Nvidia. Revenues in this part of the business were also higher by 23% from the prior quarter, at $22.6bn, which is a 427% increase from a year ago.
