DGX Station takes advantage of Nvidia's latest GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip that combines a 72-core Grace CPU with a Blackwell Ultra GPU linked together with a 900 GB/s NVLink C2C interface. The system comes armed with a whopping 784GB of total onboard memory; the CPU portion is paired to 496GB of LPDDR5X rated at 396GB/s of bandwidth, and the GPU is paired with 252GB of HBM3e memory rated at 7.1 TB/s of bandwidth. Both memory pools are unified, allowing the CPU and GPU to share each other's memory for maximum AI performance.
Just like a typical workstation PC, Nvidia has armed the DGX Station with three PCIe Gen 5 x16 slots, one wired with 16 lanes and eight lanes for the other two. The workstation system officially supports discrete GPU options to plug into its PCIe slots for extra tasks such as simulation and ray-traced visualization.

There are also four M.2 slots, audio connectors, and USB ports.
The workstation uses Nvidia's ConnectX-8 SuperNIC for networking, which supports speeds of up to 800 Gb/s through two QSFP112 ports. The system is designed to accelerate AI projects by hooking up to two DGX Stations together to scale model capacity and performance. Power connectivity comes in the form of a single 24-pin ATX power connector, a single 8-pin EPS connector, and three 12V-2×6 power connectors for the GPU, to feed the system's 1600W official power rating.
