- Nvidia abandons the ground floor but diverts the spotlight with grace blackwell ai machines
- NVIDIA DGX Spark provides 1,000 highs in a mini PC which targets the developers and coders of the serious AI
- The NVIDIA DGX station has a 72 core processor and a 288 GB HBM3E GPU memory
In Computex 2025, Nvidia took a somewhat unconventional route by avoiding the main floor of the exhibition and rather organizing its own “GTC Taipei” event in a neighboring hotel.
There, the CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, delivered a trio of opening speeches during the event, revealing new equipment focused on AI. Among the biggest announcements were two devices: the DGX Spark, a compact mini PC intended for AI developers and the DGX station, a more powerful work class system.
Although the NVIDIA brand units were presented, the real surprise was the range of OEM partners joining the initiative, with 11 models expected on the Spark and Station lines.
NVIDIA DGX Spark

The DGX Spark is built around the new NVIDIA GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which combines a 20 core processor co-developed with Mediatek (with 10 cores Cortex-X295 and 10 Cortex-X725) and a GPU based on Blackwell Architecture of Nvidia.
Designed for developers, the device offers up to 1,000 high (FP4 / sparse) of performance and ships with a Linux based OS-based DGX, the AI ​​development suite of Nvidia also used in its platforms of data centers like Blackwell and Hopper.
Several partners, including Acer, Asus, Dell, Gigabyte, HP, Lenovo and MSI, had exposed models. At first glance, however, the only visible differences were in the external design.
No internal demolition was authorized during the event, raising a valid question: how are these OEM versions different beyond aesthetics?
While the DGX Spark promises to be a solid competitor for the title of best mobile workstation for the development of AI, potential buyers may want to wait for detailed criticism before making a purchase.

The DGX station, more directly intended for professionals needing high -end workstation PC, has the GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip.
It is equipped with 288 GB of HBM3E memory on the GPU and a V2 NeOverse V2 processor associated with 496 GB of RAM LPDDR5X, which made an ordinary office.
Like The Spark, it works on DGX OS and supports the full AI development battery of Nvidia.
The table of the DGX station presented at the exhibition was a model, although the real product was displayed during a separate session.
However, questions remain on the finalization of systems, especially since complete availability is not expected before the end of 2025.
In particular, the DGX station will only be available via OEMS, with Asus, Gigabyte, MSI and Supermicro leading to deployment.
This fragmented distribution model could introduce a variation in the quality of construction and thermal performance, critical factors for users who are looking for the best workstation PC.
