NVIDIA collaborates with Microsoft and MediaTek to officially release RTX Spark: redefining PC for the first time in 40 years According to Beating monitoring, Huang Renxun officially released the RTX Spark series SoC chips during his GTC Taipei 2026 speech, announcing that NVIDIA and Microsoft have teamed up to "redefine personal computers for the first time in 40 years". He referred to RTX Spark as' everything starts with a spark ', the result of 33 years of NVIDIA's technological accumulation condensed into one chip. The RTX Spark adopts TSMC's 3nm process and dual chiplet design: a CPU designed by MediaTek (high-end N1X version with 20 core Arm architecture, 10 Cortex-X925 performance cores+10 Cortex-A725 energy efficient cores), paired with a Blackwell architecture RTX GPU (high-end 6144 CUDA cores, AI computing power of 1 PFLOP). The system is equipped with 128GB of unified memory (LPDDR5X), and the CPU and GPU share a memory pool. High performance benchmark desktop RTX 5070 discrete graphics card. Huang Renxun compared this transformation to the historical moment when Windows 95 brought PCs into millions of households. He pointed out that the operating system of the new PC is a combination of traditional OS and a large language model, and LLM is the "modern version of DirectX", which understands prompt words, computer vision, and can generate videos and sounds; Traditional applications will be replaced by Agent runtime. Each PC will have an autonomous agent: capable of conversing with you, reading files for you, conducting research for you, and continuously running securely locally or in the cloud. He revealed that he will collaborate with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella tomorrow to showcase more details. The first batch of laptops and small computers equipped with RTX Spark are expected to be launched in the fall of 2026, with partners including Dell, Asus, Lenovo, and Microsoft. [Original link]
