NVIDIA's newest GPU platform is the Blackwell, which companies including AWS, Microsoft and Google plan to adopt for generative AI and other modern computing tasks, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced during the keynote at the NVIDIA GTC conference on March 18 in San Jose, California.

Along with the Blackwell GPUs, the company announced the NVIDIA GB200 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which links two NVIDIA B200 Tensor Core GPUs to the NVIDIA Grace CPU - providing a new, combined platform for LLM inference.

Huang announced a wide range of new products and services across accelerated computing and generative AI during the NVIDIA GTC 2024 keynote.

Specifically, the X800 series contains the NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand or NVIDIA Spectrum-X800 Ethernet switches, the NVIDIA Quantum Q3400 switch and the NVIDIA ConnectXR-8 SuperNIC. The X800 switches will be available in 2025.

NVIDIA will accelerate Google Cloud with the NVIDIA Grace Blackwell AI computing platform and the NVIDIA DGX Cloud service, coming to Google Cloud.

Dell will use NVIDIA's AI infrastructure and software suite to create Dell AI Factory, an end-to-end AI enterprise solution, available as of March 18 through traditional channels and Dell APEX. At an undisclosed time in the future, Dell will use the NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Superchip as the basis for a rack scale, high-density, liquid-cooled architecture.
