At CES 2025 in Las Vegas, Nvidia introduced Project Digits, a “personal AI supercomputer” that offers access to the company’s Grace Blackwell hardware platform in a compact form.
“[Project Digits] runs the entire Nvidia AI stack — all of Nvidia software runs on this,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said during a press conference on Monday. “It’s a cloud computing platform that sits on your desk … It’s even a workstation, if you like it to be.”
Targeted at AI researchers, data scientists, and students, Project Digits features Nvidia’s new GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, delivering up to a petaflop of computing power for prototyping, fine-tuning, and running AI models.
Nvidia claims that a single Project Digits unit can handle models as large as 200 billion parameters. Parameters are closely linked to a model’s problem-solving capabilities, with models containing more parameters generally delivering better performance.
The GB10, developed in collaboration with MediaTek, features an Nvidia Blackwell GPU paired with a 20-core Nvidia Grace CPU. Inside the Project Digits unit, the chips are connected to a 128GB memory pool and up to 4TB of flash storage. Nvidia also notes that two Project Digits units can be linked to run models with up to 405 billion parameters, should the task require it. The system can function as a standalone device or connect to a primary Windows or Mac PC.
However, Project Digits doesn’t come cheap. Available starting in May for $3,000, the units will be sold through “top partners” and run Nvidia’s Linux-based DGX OS. As Huang noted, “With Project Digits, the Grace Blackwell Superchip comes to millions of developers. 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.”
