AI Blox Blox_V supports Orin NX and the original Nano. Which of those modules has more GPU CUDA cores, and what memory type does it use?

Question

Rapidflare · Accepted Answer

The **Jetson Orin NX** has more GPU CUDA cores: **1024**, compared with **128** on the original Jetson Nano. The Orin NX uses **LPDDR5** memory.

Blox\_V supports both module families. It is an IP67, passively cooled, vehicle-grade AI computer for Jetson Orin NX or Jetson Nano.

**Module comparison**

| Module | GPU architecture | GPU CUDA cores | Memory type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jetson Orin NX 16GB | Ampere | 1024 | LPDDR5 |
| Jetson Orin NX 8GB | Ampere | 1024 | LPDDR5 |
| Jetson Nano | Maxwell | 128 | LPDDR4 |

Both Orin NX versions, 8GB and 16GB, have 1024 CUDA cores and LPDDR5 memory, so the answer is the same whichever one is in your Blox\_V.
