Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang unveiled the company's new RTX Spark superchip during his keynote at Computex 2026 in Taipei, Taiwan, on June 1, 2026. The Arm-based processor pushes Nvidia beyond the data-center and gaming-GPU markets it has long dominated and directly into the consumer laptop business. "The PC is being reinvented," Huang said, framing the move as a turning point comparable to the rise of the smartphone.
The RTX Spark packs up to 20 Arm CPU cores, a Blackwell GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores, 128GB of LPDDR5X unified memory and up to 300 GB/s of memory bandwidth onto a single chip. Nvidia said the design folds CUDA, RTX and its full AI platform into one processor, allowing local AI agents, frontier models and games to run directly on a laptop. The first machines will be as thin as 14 millimeters and will carry a premium price tag.
RTX Spark will power high-end laptops from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus and MSI, along with a new Surface Ultra laptop from Microsoft. Nvidia said more than 30 RTX Spark laptops and roughly 10 compact desktops are expected to ship in the fall. At the same event, the company announced that its Vera data-center CPU has entered full production, with OpenAI, Anthropic and SpaceX among early adopters.
Nvidia rounded out its hardware push with its next-generation Rubin platform, which the company says delivers up to a 10x reduction in inference token cost and a 4x reduction in the number of GPUs needed to train mixture-of-experts models, compared with Blackwell. Rubin-based products are expected from partners in the second half of 2026. As Huang repositioned Nvidia as an "infrastructure company," analysts noted the laptop move could reshape competition in a PC market long dominated by Intel, AMD and Qualcomm.
