Technological Breakthroughs

Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip

Mountain

Features an NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPU, which comes with the latest-generation NVIDIA CUDA® cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores, connected to a high-performance NVIDIA Grace CPU via the NVIDIA® NVLink®-C2C interconnect, delivering best-in-class system communication and performance.

Fifth-Generation Tensor Cores
Mountain Powered by the latest NVIDIA Blackwell Generation Tensor Cores, enabling 4-bit floating point (FP4) AI. FP4 increases the performance and size of next-generation models that memory can support while maintaining high accuracy.
NVIDIA ConnectX-8 SuperNIC
Mountain The NVIDIA ConnectX®-8 SuperNIC is optimized to supercharge hyperscale AI computing workloads. With up to 800 gigabits per second (Gb/s), NVIDIA ConnectX®-8 SuperNIC delivers extremely fast, efficient network connectivity, significantly enhancing system performance for AI factories.
NVIDIA DGX OS
Mountain NVIDIA DGX OS implements stable, fully qualified operating systems for running AI, machine learning, and analytics applications on the NVIDIA DGX platform. It includes system-specific configurations, drivers, and diagnostic and monitoring tools. Easily scale across multiple NVIDIA DGX Station systems, NVIDIA DGX Cloud, or other accelerated data center or cloud infrastructure.
NVLink-C2C Interconnect
Mountain NVIDIA NVLink-C2C extends the industry-leading NVLink technology to a chip-to-chip interconnect between the GPU and CPU, enabling high-bandwidth coherent data transfers between processors and accelerators.
Large Memory for AI
Mountain AI models continue to grow in scale and complexity. Training and running these models within NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Ultra’s large coherent memory allows for massive-scale models to be trained and run efficiently within one memory pool, thanks to the C2C superchip interconnect that bypasses the bottlenecks of traditional CPU and GPU systems.
NVIDIA AI Software Stack
Mountain A full stack solution for AI workloads including fine-tuning, inference, and data science. NVIDIA’s AI software stack lets you work local and easily deploy to cloud or data center using the same tools, libraries, frameworks and pretrained models from desktop to cloud.
Workload Optimized Power-Shifting
Mountain NVIDIA DGX Stations take advantage of AI-based system optimizations that intelligently shift power based on the currently active workload, continually maximizing performance and efficiency.
Large Memory for AI
Mountain AI models continue to grow in scale and complexity. Training and running these models within NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Ultra’s large coherent memory allows for massive-scale models to be trained and run efficiently within one memory pool, thanks to the C2C superchip interconnect that bypasses the bottlenecks of traditional CPU and GPU systems.
