- Nvidia unveiled the RTX Spark CPU at Computex in Taipei, calling it a "superchip" with 1-petaflop performance designed to run AI agents like OpenClaw and Hermes Agent securely.
- RTX Spark Windows PCs will arrive this fall from ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface, and MSI, with Acer and Gigabyte models to follow.
- Microsoft co-developed the secure sandboxes running on the new PCs, which include enough CPU, GPU, RAM, and Nvidia CUDA software to run local large language models.
- Over 100 Windows software makers — including Adobe, Blender, ComfyUI, Riot Games, and Xbox — have signed on to support the chip at launch.
- Nvidia's RTX technology will deliver faster AI performance and better image quality across more than 1,000 games and applications.
- Jensen Huang framed the chip as the end of "launching apps, pointing, clicking, and typing," saying with RTX Spark and Windows, "you ask — and the PC does the work."
Why it matters: Nvidia is extending its AI dominance from data-center GPUs into the PC CPU market, and the depth of its launch lineup — six OEM partners shipping in fall plus 100+ software makers including Adobe and Xbox — gives it immediate distribution across both creative and gaming audiences rather than a slow niche rollout.
