A few days ago, a surprise Nvidia chip appeared on Geekbench, seemingly out of nowhere. It was the GB10 'superchip' announced a while ago, and even though the listings have been scrubbed now, word has already spread. Thanks to Lenovo, we now have our first look at one of the world's first GB10-powered mini-PC: the Lenovo ThinkStation PGX.
Unfortunately, Lenovo hasn't revealed anything about the ThinkStation PGX mini-PC, with the press release stating it comes with Nvidia's DGX OS and software stack. It features 128 GB of RAM LPDDR5x RAM on a 256-bit bus and an unspecified amount of storage. A cursory glance at Nvidia's GB10 spec sheet reveals up to 4 TB is supported. Those looking to get their hands on a Lenovo ThinkStation PGX will have to wait until Q3 of its year. Even though its price isn't specified, it probably won't be cheap.
The Nvidia GB10 powered ThinkStation PGX will primarily square off against Apple's M3 Ultra and AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ 395. Based on Geekbench scores alone, Apple is ahead of the pack in single and multi-core tests. The GB10's mix of 10x Cortex-X925 and 10x Cortex-A725 cores puts it between the M3 Ultra and the Strix Halo part. But, Nvidia's real power lies in its software ecosystem, that will undoubtedly be optimized for the GB10. Nevertheless, we should know more at Computex, where it will hopefully be shown off in more detail.
