Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 29088, member: 2262"] ASUS just showed off its new AI supercomputer, Ascent GX10. This machine brings incredible computing power right to your desk—think of it as a mini supercomputer that fits where you work. The system helps AI developers, researchers, and data scientists run powerful AI programs without needing huge computer rooms. Big AI models need lots of memory and processing power to run properly. The Ascent GX10 solves this problem by giving you massive computing strength in a desktop-sized box. You can test and adjust large AI models right at your workspace. This makes AI development much faster and cheaper than using remote systems. The new ASUS machine delivers up to 1,000 TOPS of AI power - enough for huge AI tasks. With its 128 GB memory system, you can work with AI models containing up to 200 billion parameters. The brain inside this system comes from NVIDIA's GB10 Superchip. This chip combines the Grace Blackwell design for amazing AI performance in a small space. Inside the Ascent GX10, a Blackwell GPU with fifth-generation Tensor Cores that support FP4 calculations is located. The system also includes a fast Grace 20-core Arm CPU that speeds up data processing. These parts connect through NVIDIA NVLink technology, which moves data five times faster than PCIe 5.0 connections found in regular computers. The massive memory and advanced FP4 support let you work with AI models up to 200 billion parameters. This means you can build and test cutting-edge AI reasoning models directly on your desk. For even bigger projects, you can link two GX10 systems together. This setup handles monster-sized models like Llama 3.1 with its 405 billion parameters. ASUS designed the Ascent GX10 as a testing ground where you can try new ideas without tying up expensive cluster resources. The system runs NVIDIA AI software, making it easy to move your work from the desktop to the cloud later. Your code stays almost the same when you switch to larger systems for production. KuoWei Chao from ASUS says AI changes every industry, and they want to put that power directly into your hands. The compact but mighty system helps creators push AI forward from their desks instead of needing huge lab space. You can pre-order the ASUS Ascent GX10 starting next quarter - April through June 2025. [/QUOTE]
