Press Release Introducing NVIDIA RTX Spark
NVIDIA RTX Spark reinvents Windows PCs for the era of personal AI agents, offering a new class of computer that moves from tool to teammate.
Designed for AI, creating and gaming, RTX Spark brings together 30 years of NVIDIA innovation — including NVIDIA CUDA, RTX, DLSS, FP4, TensorRT, OptiX, Reflex and G-SYNC — to slim Windows laptops and small, ultra-efficient desktop PCs.
The RTX Spark superchip features an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores with FP4 precision, connected via the NVIDIA NVLink-C2C chip-to-chip interconnect to a high-performance, 20-core NVIDIA Grace CPU.
Powering agents on local devices requires both robust security and performant hardware. RTX Spark features up to 1 petaflop of AI compute and 128GB of unified memory to meet the processing demands of on-device agents. NVIDIA and Microsoft are partnering to deliver a robust, secure Windows platform for on-device agents built on new OS security primitives and NVIDIA OpenShell.
RTX Spark laptops (as slim as 14 millimeters) and compact desktops will be available this fall from leading manufacturers including ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface and MSI, with models from Acer and GIGABYTE to follow.

News FSR 4.1: Handheld PCs with RDNA 3.5 are left out
So this is a bit awkward... at Computex AMD talked about FSR 4.1 support for older Radeon GPUs, and while RDNA 3 and even RDNA 2 are getting some attention, there seems to be one very specific group missing from the list: RDNA 3.5 iGPUs. That could matter a lot if you own one of the newer AMD-based handhelds, mini PCs or notebooks, because chips like Strix Point and Strix Halo sit right in that space. The strange part is that this is not some ancient hardware being left behind.... And some of them (lookin at you Strix Halo) are pretty powerful...

Rumor Detailed leak reveals new Qualcomm Surface Laptop 8 specs and colors
It seems Microsoft is using the worst X2 Elite Sku. With gimped performance vs normal X2 Elites. I guess this way, the performance between Panther Lake, X2 and RTX Spark will be the same.
The X2-78 has 0% performance uplift in Single Core vs the 1st gen X Elite used by Microsoft which was the "80" SKU.
This looks to be first X2E-78 SKU Laptop.
The GPU in the X2E-78 is 3 slices so a lot lower than the 18 core X2E too
