The caller lineup includes laptops and desktops pinch Blackwell and Blackwell Ultra GPUs; they're designed to supply capable musculus to trial AI models earlier they’re deployed.
New PCs introduced Tuesday by Dell athletics high-powered Nvidia GPUs designed to thief workers trial AI models earlier deployment.
The caller AI PC lineup includes laptops and desktops pinch Nvidia’s latest Blackwell Ultra and Blackwell GPUs, which supply nan musculus needed to trial compute-intensive AI models. AI PCs are designed to tally generative AI devices and models much efficiently than modular PCs.
“These AI developer PCs will make it overmuch easier for developers to prototype, to trial and moreover standard their models into accumulation environments,” said Kevin Terwilliger, vice president and wide head for consumer, commercialized and gaming PCs astatine Dell.
The announcement coincides pinch Nvidia’s rollout of its latest GPU Blackwell Ultra astatine the GTC conference in San Jose. The GPU is nan successor to nan red-hot Blackwell GPU, which racked up $11 cardinal successful income successful nan astir caller quarter.
The Pro Max bid of workstations bring hardware antecedently utilized successful information centers to desktops. “These systems will redefine AI developer experiences by really bridging nan spread betwixt table broadside experimentation and endeavor standard AI deployment,” Terwilliger said.
The caller Pro Max pinch GB300 packs nan tightly coupled Blackwell Ultra GPU and Grace CPU, some made by Nvidia. It includes 784GB of unified strategy representation — 288GB HBM3e representation and 496GB of LPDDR5X memory.
Developers tin trial and prototype AI models pinch up to 460 cardinal parameters connected nan Pro Max pinch GB300. The strategy delivers 20 petaflops of capacity pinch nan FP4 information type, which is simply a low-precision measurement for inferencing.
The Pro Max pinch GB10 includes Nvidia’s Blackwell GPU — a procreation down nan Blackwell Ultra — and nan Grace CPU. Developers will beryllium capable to activity pinch AI models pinch up to 200 cardinal parameters connected a PC that delivers 1 petaflop of FP4 performance.
The systems are slated to beryllium disposable later this year, see Nvidia’s DGX Base OS aliases Ubuntu Linux, and will beryllium preconfigured pinch Nvidia’s AI software.
Desktop prototyping makes it easy to find nan size and capacity of AI models, according to Terwilliger. “Once you correct size it for nan information set, past it’s due to past standard it into nan information center,” he said.
Some Dell customers request a unafraid trial situation wherever they tin tune immoderate of their ain data, said Matt Toolan, a Dell spokesman. For example, customers person tested different integer assistants to find whether chat capabilities and responses were meaningful and connected target, Toolan said.
Anshel Sag, main expert astatine Moor Insights and Strategy, was skeptical astir Dell’s declare of utilizing Pro Max PCs to standard AI models to information centers.
Instead, nan AI devices much astir making nan deployments of on-device AI smoother, Sag said. “I don’t really deliberation PC workloads are really useful for data-center standard deployments. I do judge Dell is uniquely positioned to alteration hybrid AI that are wholly on-premise,” Sag said.
Dell besides announced Pro Max laptops pinch RTX Pro GPUs based connected nan Blackwell architecture. The institution claimed nan PCs will beryllium up to 36% faster than nan previous-generation Precision PCs.
The Dell Pro Max laptops person “tandem” OLED displays, haptic touchpads, lattice-less keyboards and 8-megapixel IR cameras. The systems travel pinch Intel Core Ultra Series 2 aliases AMD Ryzen processors, connection surface sizes from 14-in. to 18-in., and will vessel later this year.
Dell did not supply pricing accusation for nan systems.
