1 TB: Nvidia lets eight DGX Spark systems work together
Nvidia announced at GTC Berlin that eight DGX Spark systems with 128 GB of memory can run as one cluster.
Nvidia now lets you link eight of its small AI computers so they act like one with much more memory. That helps people who want to run huge AI programs in their own office.

Why it matters
Running big AI models locally needs a lot of memory, and clustering pools the memory of several small machines.
Skip: aimed at developers.
The details
- Eight DGX Spark systems with 128 GB of unified memory each give 1 TB in total, according to Nvidia.
- Clusters of the newer 64 GB model reach up to 512 GB.
