While Jensen Huang commanded the spotlight at COMPUTEX 2025 in Taipei, NVIDIA quietly unveiled a showstopper: it’s powering ABCI-Q, the world’s largest quantum research supercomputer, a massive beast set to propel quantum computing from lab experiments to a real-world powerhouse.
The big news comes with the launch of the Global Research and Development Center for Business by Quantum-AI Technology (G-QuAT), a new hub from NVIDIA and Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). G-QuAT is where ABCI-Q lives, a supercomputer that’s more like a tech orchestra than a single machine. Packed with over 2,020 NVIDIA H100 GPUs, all linked by the super-speedy NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand network, ABCI-Q is ready to crunch numbers for game-changing work in fields like healthcare, energy, and finance.
- Purposeful Design: Travel with ease and look great doing it with the Aspire's 3 thin, light design.
- Ready-to-Go Performance: The Aspire 3 is ready-to-go with the latest AMD Ryzen 3 7320U Processor with Radeon Graphics—ideal for the entire family,...
- Visibly Stunning: Experience sharp details and crisp colors on the 15.6" Full HD IPS display with 16:9 aspect ratio and narrow bezels.
Quantum computing is like swapping a skateboard for a jetpack. Traditional computers work with bits, which are just 0s or 1s. Quantum computers use qubits, which can do many things at once because of quirky quantum rules. This makes them super fast at solving tough problems, like copying molecules or fixing global shipping, leaving regular supercomputers in the dust. The catch? Quantum tech is fussy, makes mistakes, and is still new. That’s where ABCI-Q shines, blending NVIDIA’s AI-powered GPUs with advanced quantum processors to create something truly awesome.
ABCI-Q isn’t limited to one quantum style—it’s a jack-of-all-trades. It combines a superconducting qubit processor from Fujitsu, a neutral atom processor from QuEra, and a photonic processor from OptQC. Each has its own strengths, letting ABCI-Q handle all sorts of jobs, from quantum machine learning to breaking codes and solving chemistry riddles with amazing precision. NVIDIA’s H100 GPUs are the key, boosting AI simulations and fixing errors to keep the quantum parts running smoothly.
