NVIDIA launches world's smallest supercomputer, DGX Spark
NVIDIA has introduced new personal AI supercomputers, the DGX Spark and DGX Station, during its GTC conference in San Jose, California. CEO Jensen Huang described these devices as a "new class of computers" aimed at developers, researchers, and students working with AI. The DGX Spark is claimed to be the world's smallest supercomputer. It features 784 GB of memory and is powered by the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, capable of performing 1,000 trillion AI operations per second. It allows users to easily export AI models to the cloud or other infrastructures. A waitlist is now open for the DGX Spark, priced at $3,000, and will be produced by companies like ASUS and Dell. The updated DGX Station is designed for desktop AI development and will be available later this year, although its price has not been disclosed. This model also has 784 GB of memory and includes the latest Grace Blackwell Ultra components. Additionally, it has advanced networking capabilities, allowing multiple DGX Stations to work together for large tasks. Both supercomputers represent NVIDIA's push to support AI innovation at various levels, from personal use to enterprise applications.
