Lenovo has announced the ThinkStation PGX, a compact, personal AI developer workstation. The ThinkStation PGX is ideal for AI researchers and developers, data scientists, practitioners, students, and application engineers who need a purpose-built, compact, and powerful AI desktop solution that works immediately out of the box. Built on the NVIDIA GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip providing up to 1 PetaFlop (1000 TOPS) of AI performance, the ThinkStation PGX can tackle large generative AI models of up to 200 billion parameters. With 128 GB of coherent unified system memory, developers can experiment, fine-tune, or inference the latest generation of reasoning AI models. To double down on computing power, developers can connect two ThinkStation PGX systems together to work with even larger AI models up to 405 billion parameters.

The ThinkStation PGX comes preconfigured with the NVIDIA DGX OS, and the NVIDIA AI software stack, along with familiar tools and frameworks like PyTorch and Jupyter. Developers can instantly prototype, fine-tune, and inference large AI models from the desktop and seamlessly deploy to the data center or cloud. “By collaborating with NVIDIA to deliver a high-performance, yet compact device, Lenovo is empowering AI developers, researchers, data scientists, and students to accelerate their workloads and adoption of breakthrough innovation in generative AI.”—Rob Herman, Vice President, Worldwide Workstation and Client AI Business at Lenovo.

The growing size and complexity of generative AI models is making development on local systems increasingly difficult. Prototyping, tuning, and inferencing large models can require large amounts of GPU memory and performance.

ThinkStation PGX provides developers with a powerful, economical platform for prototyping models and AI applications, freeing up valuable computing resources in on-prem cluster and/or cloud compute environments that are better suited to training and/or deploying production of AI models. Leveraging the NVIDIA AI platform software architecture makes it possible for ThinkStation PGX users to seamlessly move their models from their desktop to any accelerated cloud or data center infrastructure with virtually no code changes, making it easier than ever to prototype, fine-tune, and iterate.

Lenovo is at the forefront of delivering AI-ready performance across its workstation portfolio, from powerful ThinkStation desktops to mobile ThinkPad P Series workstations. Through Lenovo’s Hybrid AI Advantage with NVIDIA, Lenovo offers full-stack, validated AI solutions that accelerate the development and deployment of agentic AI—systems capable of reasoning, planning, and acting to achieve goals efficiently. These scalable solutions empower enterprises to harness AI across diverse environments, from edge computing to cloud infrastructures, enhancing productivity and driving innovation in the AI era.
