Nvidia unveils personal AI supercomputer which packs enough processing power
American full-stack computing company with data-center-scale offerings, Nvidia has unveiled a personal AI supercomputer that packs enough processing power.
Project Digits is a desktop computer system that uses the new GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchips to process AI models with up to 200 billion parameters.
The supercomputer is small enough to fit on a desk and run from a regular power outlet, yet it has enough processing power to run complex AI models.

“AI will be mainstream in every application for every industry. With Project Digits, the Grace Blackwell Superchip comes to millions of developers,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in a press release. “Placing an AI supercomputer on the desks of every data scientist, AI researcher and student empowers them to engage and shape the age of AI.”
Along with an Nvidia Grace processor and Blackwell graphics card, the superchip has 4 terabytes of SSD storage and 128 gigabytes of RAM.
“NVIDIA’s Project DIGITS enables researchers in robotics, computer vision and autonomous systems to experiment, fine-tune and scale solutions faster than ever — all while fitting on your desk,” said Raquel Urtasun, a professor of computer science at the University of Toronto and founder of Waabi, a self-driving car company, in a statement. Waabi uses Nvidia’s technology in its fleet of self-driving trucks. “I’m excited to see what breakthroughs Project DIGITS will enable.”
