It said units would cost $3,000 when it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/631957\/nvidia-dgx-spark-station-grace-blackwell-ai-supercomputers-gtc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">revealed Spark<\/a> earlier this year, but it appears the DGX Spark will now cost $3,999, according to an infographic embedded <a href=\"https:\/\/nvidianews.nvidia.com\/news\/nvidia-dgx-spark-arrives-for-worlds-ai-developers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in Nvidia\u2019s press release<\/a>. Most PC makers have their own customized version, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/769695\/acer-veriton-gn-100-ai-nvidia-digits-dgx-spark\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Acer Veriton GN100, as one example,<\/a> also costing $3,999.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Spark boasts the kind of performance that once required access to pricey, energy-hungry data centers. It could help democratize AI and would be particularly useful for researchers. When first announcing Spark earlier this year (then called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2025\/1\/6\/24337530\/nvidia-ces-digits-super-computer-ai\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digits<\/a>), Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said \u201cplacing an AI supercomputer on the desks of every data scientist, AI researcher and student empowers them to engage and shape the age of AI.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/gettyimages-2192236237.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,3.3309998833275,100,93.338000233345\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"&lt;em&gt;CEO Jensen Huang holding a Spark prototype at Nvidia\u2019s CES 2025 keynote.&lt;\/em&gt;\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Buyers can expect to see a variety of similar models on the market as Nvidia has said third-party manufacturers are welcome to make their own versions. Acer, Asus, Dell, Gigabyte, HP, Lenovo, and MSI are all debuting their own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/632685\/asus-ascent-gx10-dell-pro-max-gb10-hp-zgx-nano-nvidia-ai\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">customized versions of Spark<\/a>, Nvidia confirmed today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Spark comes with Nvidia\u2019s GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, 128GB of unified memory, and up to 4TB of NVMe SSD storage. Nvidia says it can deliver a petaflop of AI performance \u2014 meaning it can do a million billion calculations each second \u2014 and is capable of handling AI models with up to 200 billion parameters. It\u2019s also small, comfortably fitting on a desk and running from a standard power outlet. Nvidia calls it \u201cthe world\u2019s smallest AI supercomputer.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">We agree: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2025\/1\/8\/24339195\/nvidia-digits-ai-supercomputer-in-person-photos-small\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">it really is quite tiny<\/a>.
