NVIDIA is creating a desktop supercomputer. Today at the GTC conference, the company’s CEO Jensen Huang announced DGX Spark and DGX Station. We already saw the first of these at CES earlier this year, when Huang and company unveiled Project Digits. Now known as the DGX Spark, NVIDIA is positioning the $3,000 device as the world’s smallest AI supercomputer.
It is powered by the GB10 Grace Blackwell superchip, which NVIDIA has shrunk to fit into a case the size of a previous-generation Mac mini. NVIDIA says the GB10 can perform up to 1,000 trillion operations per second of AI computation, making it ideal for fine-tuning the latest AI reasoning models, including the GR00T N1 robotics system that Huang announced at the end of his GTC keynote. DGX Spark is available for pre-order today.
For researchers and data scientists who need even more AI computing power, the DGX Station is equipped with the GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip. The GB300 offers 20 petaflops of performance and 784 GB of unified system memory. NVIDIA has not yet announced the price of the DGX Station, although the company says the computer will go on sale later this year, and ASUS, BOXX, Dell, HP, Lambda, and Supermicro will release their own versions of the system.
