All the rumors leading up to Nvidia’s announcement of its Arm-based RTX Spark chips over the summer mentioned two specific chips: the N1X and N1. While the N1 won’t be arriving this year, Nvidia says its N1X chip is arriving in RTX Spark laptops in two different configurations in October.
You’ll be able to buy an RTX Spark N1X laptop with a configuration that I would call the mini PC chip. The top of the line N1X chip comes with a 6144-core Blackwell RTX GPU, paired with a 20-core Grace CPU and between 24GB and 128GB of unified memory. This particular chip will ship in both high-end laptops and miniature PCs like Microsoft’s Surface RTX Spark Dev Box.
The more cut down N1X, or what I’d call the laptop chip, has a 5120-core Blackwell RTX GPU, combined with an 18-core Grace CPU and between 24GB and 32GB of unified memory. I’d expect most RTX Spark N1x laptops are going to use this chip, with devices launching from Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft, or MSI in October.
