Nvidia unveils RTX Spark PC chip
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.
$NVDA UNVEILS RTX SPARK SUPERCHIP — TARGETING WINDOWS PCs New AI chip for laptops and desktops. Ships this fall through Dell and Lenovo. First Nvidia push into Windows PCs at scale. Direct shot at Intel's stronghold. Announced at Computex Taipei by Jensen Huang.
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?

"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.
