\n\tNVIDIA on Sunday unveiled NVIDIA RTX Spark, a new superchip that reinvents Windows PCs for the era of personal AI agents \u2014 offering a new class of computer that moves from tool to teammate.<\/p>\n
\n\tDesigned for AI, creating and gaming, RTX Spark brings together 30 years of NVIDIA innovation \u2014 including NVIDIA CUDA, NVIDIA RTX, DLSS, FP4, NVIDIA TensorRT, NVIDIA OptiX, Reflex and G-SYNC \u2014 to slim Windows laptops with all-day battery life and small, ultraefficient desktop PCs.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cThe PC is being reinvented,\u201d said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. \u201cFor forty years, you launched apps. Click. Type. With RTX Spark and Microsoft Windows, you ask \u2014 and the PC does the work. RTX Spark brings everything NVIDIA has built \u2014 CUDA, RTX, our AI platform \u2014 into a single superchip. Local agents. Frontier models. Creative workflows. RTX games. All on a laptop. This is the new PC. The personal AI computer.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe 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\u00ae-C2C chip-to-chip interconnect to a high-performance, 20-core NVIDIA Grace\u2122 CPU.<\/p>\n
\n\tMediaTek, a market leader in Arm-based system-on-a-chip designs, collaborated with NVIDIA on the custom CPU design, contributing to its best-in-class power efficiency, performance and connectivity.<\/p>\n
\n\tPurpose-Built for Personal Agents<\/p>\n
\n\tAI agents have reached an inflection point, with open source projects such as OpenClaw and Hermes Agent achieving record-breaking numbers on developer networks like GitHub and OpenRouter. Yet broad adoption has been limited by the inability to run agents securely and privately on users\u2019 primary PCs.<\/p>\n
\n\tNVIDIA and Microsoft are partnering to address this challenge by delivering a robust, secure Windows platform for on-device agents.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe collaboration begins with a strong foundation \u2014 new Windows security primitives and the NVIDIA OpenShell\u2122 runtime \u2014 to ensure agents run safely and under full user control.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe new Windows primitives deliver identity, containment, policy and end-to-end security capabilities to build and run agents natively. NVIDIA OpenShell provides additional policy capabilities for the user to define what agents can and cannot do, the ability to intelligently route queries to local models based on the user\u2019s privacy policies, and the ability to disguise personal information in queries sent to cloud models.<\/p>\n
\n\tThis robust security and privacy layer is being adopted by leading agent developers such as Hermes Agent and OpenClaw in their new Windows apps. These new apps will make it easy and secure for users to access powerful on-device agents that can execute tasks in Windows applications, reason through cross-app workflows, generate images and video, code plug-ins and apps, and semantically search local files.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cWe are strong supporters of deploying agents like OpenClaw securely into the Windows ecosystem,\u201d said Vincent Koc, chief architect at the OpenClaw Foundation. \u201cRunning solutions like OpenShell and the Microsoft security primitives on RTX Spark will enable users to leverage a fully integrated stack for private, personal agents running on device.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tPowering 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.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cAt Nous, we expect tasks to increasingly run on device as personal agents like our Hermes Agent become more capable and ubiquitous,\u201d said Dillon Rolnick, CEO of Nous Research. \u201cRTX Spark and NVIDIA OpenShell give Hermes users a powerful and secure environment for agents to run and work alongside you. You realize you\u2019re buying a full-fledged assistant, not a typical laptop.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tFrom this foundation, NVIDIA and Microsoft\u2019s collaboration will expand to new RTX Spark-powered Windows agent experiences accessible from the Windows taskbar user interface.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cOur goal is to deliver unmetered intelligence to every home and every desk with Windows,\u201d said Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO of Microsoft. \u201cRTX Spark marks a real breakthrough towards that vision.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tFull-Stack RTX Creating and Gaming<\/p>\n
\n\tRTX Spark delivers the full NVIDIA AI and graphics technology stack to creators, AI developers and gamers.<\/p>\n
\n\tUsers can render ultralarge 90GB 3D scenes with OptiX and DLSS, edit 12K 4:2:2 video with the NVIDIA Blackwell decoder, run 120-billion-parameter large language models with 1 million tokens context, and play AAA games at 1440p resolution and over 100 frames per second with ray tracing, DLSS and Reflex.<\/p>\n
\n\tIn addition to support for existing technologies, RTX Spark will power new RTX capabilities, including DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction featuring a second-generation transformer model \u2014 coming to Blender 5.3 and dozens of games \u2014 and RTX Video with 4x Frame Generation, coming to ComfyUI.<\/p>\n
\n\tRTX technology boosts performance, enhances image quality and adds powerful AI features in over 1,000 games and applications. Over 100 Windows software providers such as Adobe, Blackmagic Design, Blender, CapCut, ComfyUI and OTOY, and game developers such as KRAFTON, NetEase, Remedy Entertainment, Riot Games and XBOX are embracing the new RTX Spark platform.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
