Nvidia showed off its own Grace Blackwell-powered “personal AI supercomputers” yesterday, but it also made another announcement: third-party manufacturers can come and make their own versions as well. So far, Asus, Dell, and HP have come forward showing their own mini PC designs that tout the same GB10 super chip present in the Nvidia DGX Spark (formerly known as Digits).
Asus is among the first to show off its GB10 computer: the Ascent GX10. It’s a mini PC with the same 1,000 AI TOPS processing power and 128GB of unified memory as Nvidia’s Spark. The Ascent swaps the champagne metallic chassis of the Spark with a more consumer-style white plastic-looking design with a carved pattern on top.
Asus isn’t yet taking preorders for the GX10 and hasn’t revealed a price either.
HP has also teased its GB10 mini computer, the HP ZGX Nano AI Station G1n. It resembles the sleek Z2 mini workstation and looks more premium than the Asus one. The G1n looks like something you’d slot into a server rack, which is something you can do with all of these GB10 minicomputers.
Dell is incorporating Nvidia’s AI Superchips into its new hardware naming scheme with the “Dell Pro Max With GB10” (I know, it rolls right off the tongue). Dell’s version is just a plain black box with a power button on top, which may not be the best place for it if used in a server rack. Dell is also already showing off its version of the Nvidia DGX Station, the Dell Pro Max with GB300, a larger workstation computer touting 20 petaflops of AI performance, just like the source material.
Dell says its computers will arrive “early summer 2025.” That’s around the same time Nvidia’s own DGX Spark is coming, too, for which Nvidia has opened reservations. Nvidia said the Spark will cost $3,000.
Asus and HP have not said when theirs are shipping. Lenovo is also expected to build its own GB10 mini-computer, but it has not yet shown off a design or any details like the others.
