Tech company Nvidia's fourth-quarter earnings were a "frighteningly positive" story, CNBC's Jim Cramer said on Friday.
"This is it, guys. This is the replacement of us. We don't need us with Nvidia. We just don't," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street."

Cramer said tech giants Tesla, Amazon, Facebook and Google were all mentioned in the quarter, as well as virtual reality.
