For this form factor it will be likely ~2 years for the next one based on Vera CPU and whatever GPU. The 50W CPU will probably improve power efficiency.

If SOCAMM2 is used it will still probably be at most near the range of 512/768 GB/s bandwidth, unless LPDDR6X / LPDDR7X or SOCAMM2 is that much better, SOCAMM on the DGX Station is just 384 GB/s w/ LPDDR5X.

Form factor will be neutered for the near future, but will probably retain the highest compute for the form factor.

The only way there will be a difference is if Intel or AMD pump their foot on the gas, which this makes maybe 2/3 years of it, with another 2 years unless they have something cooking it isn't going to happen.



Software driven changes could occur too! Maybe the next model will beat the pants off of this with far inferior hardware. Or maybe itll be so amazing with higher bandwidth hardware that anyone running at less than 500gbs will be left feeling foolish.

Maybe a company is working on something totally different in secret that we cant even imagine. The amount of £ thrown into this space at the moment is enormous.
