NVLink allows two GPUs to directly access each other's memory. This allows much faster data transfers than would normally be allowed by the PCIe bus. This videos discusses the NVLink architrecture from a dual computer system up to an advanced HPC 8-GPU system. The two NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 GPUs featured come from a loaner Exxact high performance machine learning workstation.
