Quantum thesis
Keysight supplies the high-precision microwave electronics, control systems, and measurement instruments used to drive and read out qubits. It bought Quantum Benchmark to extend into qubit characterization software. As with FormFactor, the quantum exposure is real but small relative to a much larger electronic-test franchise.

NVIDIA does not build quantum computers but supplies the GPU-based simulation and hybrid-classical infrastructure used by nearly every serious quantum hardware team. CUDA-Q is its platform for hybrid quantum-classical workloads and increasingly co-located GPU+QPU systems. Treat NVDA as a picks-and-shovels exposure rather than a direct quantum bet.
