According to Nvidia, people with the RTX Spark installed can simply talk to their computer to get stuff done. A designer can get AI to evolve their sketch all the way to a finished 3D model and a movie with Adobe tools with agents doing all the lifting, for example, The Verge reports.
Impressive at the high end
The Spark has been teased by Nvidia and Microsoft for weeks, and the higher end models go all the way up to a petaflop of performance, with 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores (similar to a GTX 5700 GPU), with 128 GB of DDR5 memory and «all day battery life» from a thin form factor.
The chips will come in all shapes and sizes, down to a cheaper 16 GB version. They offer no benchmarks or specifics on their product, though — and say they will be targeting the premium markets first.
Will appear «everywhere»
Nvidia is already working with over 30 laptops and 10 desktops with all the usual suspects in the business, such as Asus, Dell, HP and Microsoft.
The announcement came just moments ago from Computex Taipei, and details are scarce. Nvidia says they will offer information on what models they will show up in and produce benchmarks closer to launch this fall.
Microsoft says the RTX Spark is «a key milestone in the rich, multi‑year, full‑stack collaboration between Microsoft and NVIDIA spanning gaming, AI and cloud.»
