The NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 rack-scale AI supercomputer won a Golden Award and the Sustainable Tech Special Award; the NVIDIA Jetson Thor platform for edge AI and robotics won a Golden Award; and the NVIDIA Alpamayo open platform for AV development won the Vehicle Technology and Smart Cockpit Category Award. Entries were evaluated on their functionality, innovation and market potential, showcased at the premier computer and technology trade exhibition. Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, will deliver a keynote at COMPUTEX on Monday, June 1, at 11 a.m. Taiwan time. NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 Takes Home COMPUTEX Awards Securing a Golden Award and the Sustainable Tech Special Award, Vera Rubin NVL72 connects 36 NVIDIA Vera CPUs and 72 NVIDIA Rubin GPUs — unified by the sixth-generation NVIDIA NVLink Switch for scale-up — with ConnectX-9 SuperNICs and Spectrum-X Ethernet Photonics co-packaged optics switches for scale-out and scale-across, as well as BlueField-4 DPUs to accelerate data processing across storage and security. Vera Rubin NVL72 delivers up to 10x higher inference performance per watt and 10x lower cost per token. When paired with NVIDIA Groq 3 LPX, Vera Rubin NVL72 delivers up to 35x higher throughput per watt for trillion-parameter models. Designed for agentic AI, reasoning and long-context workloads, it enables AI factories to scale intelligence inside the rack and across the data center with secure, continuously available deployment. The Vera Rubin NVL72 sets the bar for scalability, resiliency and sustainable AI infrastructure. Its cable-free, hose-free, fanless modular tray design reduces assembly time from two hours to five minutes per compute tray. The system’s power shelves deliver 6x more onboard energy storage for intelligent power smoothing, protecting both the rack and the broader power grid from steep load swings. In addition, its 100% liquid-cooled architecture operates at 45 degrees Celsius, meaning it drops seamlessly into existing liquid-cooled data centers and enables ambient-air, dry-cooler designs that redirect power from cooling overhead into token generation. More BCA Wins for NVIDIA Technologies NVIDIA Jetson Thor won a Golden Award as the most powerful edge AI compute platform built for physical AI and autonomous robots. Powered by the NVIDIA Blackwell GPU architecture, it delivers up to 2,070 FP4 teraflops of AI performance — 7.5x the compute and 3.5x the energy efficiency of the previous NVIDIA Jetson Orin generation — in a compact module configurable between 40 and 130 watts. Already in production across hundreds of applications, Jetson Thor is built to bring generative AI to smart robots, industrial systems, medical devices and autonomous machines while maximizing run-time performance and memory optimization. Plus, NVIDIA Alpamayo won the Vehicle Technology and Smart Cockpit Category Award for pioneering open, reasoning-based autonomous vehicle development. Alpamayo is designed to help developers tackle rare, complex long-tail driving scenarios — such as interpreting an ambiguous hand signal from a pedestrian, determining the right-of-way when traffic lights and road markings contradict each other, and safely passing an emergency vehicle parked partially in the lane ahead — which fall outside typical training experience The Alpamayo open platform includes Alpamayo 1.5 and Alpamayo 1, 10-billion-parameter chain-of-thought reasoning vision language action models for AV research; AlpaSim, an open source, end-to-end simulation framework for high-fidelity AV development; and NVIDIA Physical AI Open Datasets, which include more than 1,700 hours of driving data across geographies and conditions.
