The deal will pay Mellanox shareholders $125 a share-a 14.3% premium to Friday's closing price.

"We're excited to unite NVIDIA's accelerated computing platform with Mellanox's world-renowned accelerated networking platform under one roof to create next-generation datacenter-scale computing solutions," Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang said in the press release.
