Nvidia unveils RTX Spark PC chip designed to run AI agents, with models from Microsoft, Dell, HP and others launching this fall

Nvidia introduced the RTX Spark, a 1-petaflop CPU, at Computex, positioning it to run AI agents like OpenClaw or Hermes Agent securely. PCs powered by RTX Spark will be available this fall from ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface, MSI, with models from Acer and Gigabyte to follow.

The RTX Spark PCs will include secure sandboxes jointly developed with Microsoft, plus CPU, GPU, RAM and Nvidia CUDA software to run local versions of large language models (AI systems that understand and generate text). Nvidia says RTX technology will deliver faster performance for AI, better image quality, and support for AI features in more than 1,000 games and applications.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has publicly targeted a $200 billion market opportunity in CPUs for AI. The company previously sold $20 billion worth of its high-end server CPU called Vera. More than 100 Windows software makers, including Adobe, Blender, Riot Games and Xbox, have signed on to support the RTX Spark chip.

These systems appear to be full-fledged Windows versions of the DGX Spark mini-computer that Nvidia already sells to developers for about $4,800. PC manufacturers have not yet released pricing or detailed specifications for their individual RTX Spark offerings.
