MediaTek-NVIDIA GB10 AI Chip Set for Mass Rollout

According to Taiwanese media reports, MediaTek and NVIDIA have officially launched their co-developed GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, the core of the world’s first personal AI supercomputer. Backed by strong interest from leading PC brands, related end-user products featuring the GB10 chip will begin shipping and hitting the market starting this month, marking the start of high-volume deployment.

Unveiled in January 2025, NVIDIA's Project DIGITS introduced the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, integrating a Blackwell GPU with a Grace CPU. It features 128GB of LPDDR5X memory, 1TB to 4TB NVMe SSD storage, and is capable of running large language models (LLMs) with over 200 billion parameters—all within a compact personal computing footprint.

At the heart of the GB10 chip is NVIDIA’s latest CUDA and fifth-generation Tensor cores, delivering up to 1 petaflop of AI performance. It leverages NVLink-C2C interconnects for seamless communication between the Blackwell GPU and the power-efficient Grace CPU. The Grace CPU includes 20 Arm-based performance cores, co-designed by NVIDIA and MediaTek—leveraging MediaTek's leadership in system-on-chip (SoC) design to deliver exceptional performance, energy efficiency, and connectivity.

MediaTek emphasized that the GB10 architecture, built upon NVIDIA's Grace Blackwell platform, signifies a paradigm shift in AI and cloud computing technologies. It also powers DGX Spark, the world's smallest AI supercomputer designed for developers, delivering up to 1,000 TOPS of AI performance and enabling local prototyping, fine-tuning, and inference for models with hundreds of billions of parameters—bringing data-center-class AI capability to the desktop.

The collaboration not only highlights MediaTek's growing presence in high-performance computing (HPC) chip design but also marks a pivotal expansion into AI infrastructure.

NVIDIA stated that DGX Spark can seamlessly scale models to NVIDIA DGX Cloud or any other accelerated data center platform. With a compact form factor yet powerful performance, the system empowers developers, researchers, data scientists, and students to overcome the limits of generative AI and accelerate workloads across various industries.

According to NVIDIA's rollout plan, top global PC brands such as Acer, ASUS, Dell, GIGABYTE, HP, Lenovo, and MSI are expected to begin shipping DGX Spark systems in July. Analysts see this product line as a significant step for NVIDIA in solidifying its AI ecosystem and a key milestone for MediaTek in advancing its AI strategy.

MediaTek believes the long-term outlook for AI remains strong, with the technology set to permeate all aspects of life. Backed by solid financial health, the company plans to continue investing in key technologies and strategic AI projects, with ongoing progress across multiple new AI-driven sectors.
