Nvidia RTX Spark comes to Windows PCs with Arm CPU, RTX GPU, and unified memory
Nvidia’s new chips will power laptop workstations and mini desktop PCs at first.

TL;DR
- Nvidia is releasing the Arm-based RTX Spark chip for Windows PCs.
- The chip features a 20-core Nvidia Grace CPU and up to 6,144 Blackwell-based GPU cores.
- It supports up to 128GB of unified LPDDR5x memory, beneficial for AI and machine learning.
- RTX Spark systems, including laptops and compact desktops, will be available from partners like Asus, Dell, HP, and Lenovo this fall.
- Nvidia is working with game developers and anti-cheat providers to improve gaming compatibility on Arm PCs.
- The RTX Spark silicon is based on the DGX Spark workstation launched last year, with potential for high-end configurations.
- Performance may be limited by power envelopes and memory speed, but unified memory offers large VRAM capacity.
- RTX Spark will support DLSS upscaling and frame generation features.
- Lower-end models, N1X and N1, with fewer cores and RAM support, are also expected.
