Nvidia announced several products on June 1, including a new chip that adds AI functions to laptops and desktops. CEO Jensen Huang presented the RTX Spark PC chip during his keynote at the Computex conference in Taipei. The event runs June 2-5 and features major technology firms showcasing advances in the Windows ecosystem.

The RTX Spark chip stems from a three-year Microsoft partnership aimed at updating PCs for AI use. It enables local AI agents instead of cloud-only processing and was developed with MediaTek. Huang described it as combining CUDA, RTX, and AI tools into one chip for local agents, large models, creative work, and gaming on laptops.

The chip will appear in Windows laptops and desktops from Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface, and MSI this fall, with Acer and Gigabyte models following. These devices target all-day battery life and high-quality screens.

Huang also discussed the new Vera CPU, Nvidia’s first major entry into the Windows PC market, previously dominated by Qualcomm for Arm-based chips. Vera targets agentic AI, reinforcement learning, and data tasks, with early interest from OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX.

The RTX Spark chip includes a Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores linked via NVLink to a 20-core Grace CPU. It offers up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and 128GB unified memory, supporting tasks like rendering large 3D scenes, editing 12K video, running large language models, and high-frame-rate gaming. Adobe is optimizing Premiere and Photoshop for the platform.

Security features include new Windows tools and Nvidia OpenShell for controlling agent permissions.

Vera features 88 Olympus cores, spatial multithreading, and high-bandwidth memory. It will reach system builders and cloud partners this fall.

Nvidia also introduced DGX Station for Windows, a supercomputer for local AI agents supporting models up to 1 trillion parameters. It uses a GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra GPU with 72-core Grace CPU, up to 748GB memory, and 20 petaflops FP4 performance, plus high-speed networking. Availability is set for the fourth quarter from several manufacturers.

Nvidia released a set of open-source tools for agent development.
