Nvidia unveils RTX Spark PC chip

techJun 1, 202624359

Nvidia unveiled RTX Spark, an Arm-based PC chip family for Windows laptops that the company calls "the most efficient PC chip ever built." Developed with MediaTek and supported by Microsoft, RTX Spark systems will provide up to 128GB of unified memory to run large AI models locally rather than in the cloud. Microsoft plans a Surface Laptop Ultra using RTX Spark, presented as a spiritual successor to the Surface Book with full ports and an SD card reader. Nvidia says the Spark family will scale across SKUs so OEMs can ship both thin-and-light notebooks and AI-native workstations.

And Trump bought shares just before the announcement, then procured Dell for government agencies. (Good luck with the security is all I’ll say…)

Is it only one who thinks they want to offload data center compute load onto everyone's PC? That way the public chip in on electricity prices etc...

Since Trump bought parts of Intel for the govt, do we now have to worry about the Feds undermining Nvidia?

Microsoft just announced its own MacBook Pro. The Surface Laptop Ultra has Nvidia’s new RTX Spark ARM chip, and it’s “the most powerful” Surface ever. It’s a spiritual successor to the Surface Book, complete with an SD Card reader and plenty of ports www.theverge.com/tech/940584/...

SD Card reader in 2026.

Not a single mention of that much-ballyhooed “Copilot+PC” brand, I see

Nvidia told me the RTX Spark scales from "low, low single-digit" watts all the way to 80W TDP. Does that mean it could appear in handhelds, too? That the company wouldn't say — but it's calling it the "most efficient PC chip ever built."

So, Nvidia's new PC is DGX Spark in a laptop form factor, called RTX Spark.

The new line of Windows laptops and desktops will be the first ever to run solely on an Nvidia-made chip, the RTX Spark, as the AI giant looks to take on rivals Intel and AMD.

Incredible that this BBC article contains no useful information such as "what kind of AI model can you run?" and "how much might it cost, given industry shortages?" - but PC Gamer has the details uk.pcmag.com/processors/1...

"The PC is being reinvented. For forty years, you launched apps. Click. Type. With RTX Spark and Microsoft Windows, you ask -- and the PC does the work” I rolled my eyes so hard that I saw my brain stem

Lol. I mean, I guess this is a reinvention, but it's definitely not an exciting sounding one.

Does anyone want this besides Nvidia? Something extra to suck power on small devices. One more thing to fight to disable….. ugh.

Lost my Sunday to Computex news, and I don't even get to enjoy great food in Taiwan! Anyway, NVIDIA is making PC chips now www.engadget.com/2184558/nvid...

And the Surface Laptop Ultra is one of the first machines to use the RTX Spark chip. It's... a straight up MacBook Pro. www.engadget.com/2184570/micr...

ASUS just dropped the ultimate Arm-based creator laptops with 128GB of RAM and RTX Blackwell graphics via NVIDIA's new RTX Spark (N1x) processors. There's always been a missing piece of the Windows on Arm puzzle: true, high-performance creator workstations. The ProArt P14 and P16 aim to solve that.
