GIGABYTE Demonstrates 4-Node AI Cluster That Pushes Simulations Beyond 30 Million Atoms

3 articles · Updated · PR Newswire Asia · Jul 7

Summary

  • Four interconnected AI TOP ATOM nodes let GIGABYTE run local AI and scientific workloads beyond a standalone system’s limits, with the demo targeting memory-heavy research use cases.
  • Each node delivers 1 PFLOPS FP4 performance and 128 GB of unified memory; linked through a 200GbE RoCE-capable switch, the cluster scales from one to four nodes while keeping data on premises.
  • In a joint showcase with NVIDIA, the system used NemoClaw blueprints and Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-NVFP4 models to generate research hypotheses, then dispatched GROMACS simulations across the cluster.
  • For thermal interface material development in semiconductor packaging, the four-node setup lifted simulation capacity from about 10 million atoms on standalone systems to more than 30 million atoms.
  • The demonstration positions AI TOP ATOM as a local, modular platform for enterprises and researchers that need larger AI and scientific computing workloads without giving up data sovereignty.
