High-Performance AI Factories, Smart Edge Solutions, and Local LLM Desktops Take Center Stage at the World’s Premier Tech Event
GIGABYTE Technology has officially launched its AI Forward showcase at CES 2026, positioning itself as the computational backbone of the next generation of artificial intelligence. From modular data center “AI Factories” to personal AI agents, GIGABYTE’s ecosystem covers the entire spectrum of AI development across cloud, edge, and consumer devices.
GIGABYTE is redefining the data center with its GIGAPOD solution, a modular Building-Block infrastructure designed for rapid deployment. By integrating high-performance servers with GIGABYTE POD Manager software, the company is enabling enterprises to validate and scale AI workloads with unprecedented speed.
The Hardware Powerhouse:
- NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Ultra NVL72: The flagship rack-level node delivering up to 50× inference performance compared to the previous Hopper generation.
- Liquid Cooling Excellence: The G4L4 and G4L3 servers utilize direct-liquid-cooling to support Intel® Xeon® 6 processors and NVIDIA HGX B300 systems, maximizing density and thermal efficiency.
- AMD Instinct™ MI355X: Support for the latest AMD EPYC™ 9005 series processors ensures high-volume inference and simulation capabilities.
- Intelligent Management: A new in-house Rack Management Switch centralizes control for up to eight DLC racks, featuring precision leak detection and multi-vendor communication.
GIGABYTE is moving AI out of the cloud and into the real world. At CES, the company demonstrated a Smart Warehouse showcase to illustrate the potential of Physical AI. These solutions are built for environments where 24/7 reliability and low latency are non-negotiable.
- Embedded Systems: Powering AGV/AMR (Autonomous Guided Vehicles/Robots) fleet coordination.
- Industrial PCs: Providing high TOPS (Trillions of Operations Per Second) for robotic arms and conveyor systems.
- Machine Vision: Advanced I/O support for sensors that allow AI to “see” and react to physical data in real-time.
GIGABYTE is leading the charge in Agentic AI, autonomous systems that can execute complex tasks. The new AI TOP series (including the ATOM, 100 Z890, and 500 TRX50) allows creators and researchers to perform local LLM fine-tuning and inference privately and securely using standard electrical outlets.
Consumer Highlights:
- AI TOP Utility: Software that simplifies the complex workflow of model management and deployment for local users.
- AORUS RTX 5090 AI BOX: Equipped with Thunderbolt™ 5, this external GPU allows laptop users to access the massive power of the GeForce RTX™ 5090 for near-desktop AI performance.
- GiMATE AI Companion: A new on-device assistant integrated into GIGABYTE’s latest laptops to provide real-time creative and professional assistance.
“GIGABYTE’s technologies form the computational backbone of next-generation AI infrastructure,” the company stated, emphasizing its commitment to enabling organizations to deploy AI with greater scale and efficiency.
