TAIPEI, Taiwan – October 14, 2025:
ASUS is making waves in the world of artificial intelligence (AI) with the launch of its new personal AI supercomputer, the Ascent GX10. Starting October 15, 2025, this compact and highly advanced desktop system will empower developers, AI researchers, and data scientists with unprecedented computing power for AI innovation.
The Ascent GX10 packs the muscle of 1 petaflop of AI performance into a footprint no larger than a small desktop unit. At the heart of this powerhouse lies the NVIDIA GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which combines a 20-core Grace CPU and Blackwell GPU to provide the power needed for high-end AI model training, fine-tuning, and inference—all within a desktop-sized package. This groundbreaking solution supports up to 128GB of unified memory, allowing users to work with models containing up to 200 billion parameters with ease.
Jackie Hsu, Senior Vice President of ASUS' Open Platform and AIoT Business Groups, shared, “We’re excited to introduce the Ascent GX10, a game-changing personal AI supercomputer. With the combination of NVIDIA's powerful hardware and our intuitive software stack, we’re enabling AI developers to scale their innovations faster, all while keeping the solution affordable and efficient. It’s the perfect tool for both startups and enterprise-level researchers.”
Despite its compact size of just 150 x 150 x 51mm, the Ascent GX10 offers scalability and performance that rival much larger, more expensive systems. The integration of NVIDIA AI software with the hardware makes it a full-stack solution capable of handling everything from robotics and computer vision to Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Developers can double their AI performance by connecting two Ascent GX10 units via ConnectX-7 network interfaces, delivering up to 2 petaflops of AI performance.
For AI professionals working on large datasets, the Ascent GX10 offers flexible storage options, with 1TB, 2TB, and even a forthcoming 4TB SSD to accommodate growing project demands. Whether it’s a single dataset or a multi-model experiment, this system ensures that developers have access to the right resources.
One of the most impressive features of the Ascent GX10 is its ability to sustain high-level performance in a compact form factor. ASUS engineers have developed an advanced thermal design that uses 7-level fan control, ultrawide fins, and five heat pipes to ensure effective cooling. The system’s thermal efficiency means users can rely on consistent performance even during extended AI workloads.
With the launch of the Ascent GX10, ASUS is making powerful AI development more accessible than ever before. Whether you're a seasoned AI researcher or a newcomer to the field, this desktop supercomputer brings enterprise-level AI capabilities to your desk, at a competitive price point, and in a form factor small enough to fit into any workspace.
The Ascent GX10 is available starting October 15, 2025. It promises to redefine how AI development is done, offering unparalleled performance, scalability, and flexibility in a compact desktop unit. For more information, visit the official ASUS website.
