Summary
Nvidia has unveiled two personal artificial intelligence (AI) supercomputers, DGX Spark and DGX Station, both of which will be manufactured by Dell, Lenovo, HP, Asus and BOXX, Lambda and Supermicro.
The new devices are capable of running neural networks and were designed specifically for prototyping, fine-tuning and running large AI models, and aim to make it easier for developers, researchers and data scientists to incorporate AI into their work.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the company wanted to create a new computer designed specifically for AI-native developers and applications, comments that reflect the increasingly important role AI is playing in corporate computing stacks.
The smaller DGX Spark boasts the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip with its Blackwell GPU and fifth-generation Tensor Cores, capable of delivering up to 1,000 trillion operations per second for AI.
The more powerful DGX Station features the GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip, 784GB of coherent memory and the ConnectX-8 SuperNIC, which supports networking speeds of up to 800Gb/s.
