Nvidia’s $4K Mini AI Beast: Supercomputer Or Expensive Paperweight?
Nvidia is launching its pint-sized DGX Spark AI supercomputer on October 15th for a wallet-scorching $3,999—up from the initial ‘friendly’ $3,000 tease. This desktop darling packs the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, 128GB memory, and up to 4TB SSD storage, claiming to do a million billion calculations per second, or a petaflop for those who enjoy sci-fi jargon. The CEO Jensen Huang dreams of AI supercomputers cluttering every researcher’s desk, with brands like Acer, Asus, Dell, and even MSI scrambling to slap their logos on this tiny, power-sipping titan. Meanwhile, the bigger brother ‘Station’ lurks in the shadows, unavailable but ready to flex.
