In summary:
- PCWorld reports Nvidia unveiled RTX Spark processors at Computex, with over 30 laptops and 10 desktops expected to feature these AI-focused chips starting in 2026.
- Major manufacturers like Asus and MSI are launching creator-focused devices, including the ProArt P16/P14 laptops with 4K displays and MSI’s Prestige N16 Flip AI+ with UHD+ OLED touchscreen.
- These RTX Spark-powered systems target content creators and AI applications, offering high-resolution displays, stylus support, and compact mini PCs supporting up to four external monitors.
Nvidia made headlines by unveiling its new RTX Spark processors at Computex in Taipei this week, and now we know a bit more about the systems they’ll power in 2026.
That’s notable because the first laptops and mini PCs to ship packing the System-on-Chip will be Nvidia’s initial volley against competition from the likes of AMD, Apple, and Qualcomm. The Nvidia RTX Spark design is pitched as excelling at tasks like AI, content creation, and gaming, but we haven’t seen much in the way of proof yet.
While we don’t know much about the silicon or the initial RTX Spark systems announced by Nvidia and its partners, there are some interesting details worth knowing about while we wait for further pricing and availability info.
The folks at The Verge report Nvidia confirmed work on “over 30 laptops and 10 desktops” powered by RTX Spark, but so far we know about fewer than 10. Here’s everything worth knowing about what’s announced.
Asus Pro Art P14/P16 & Mini PC
Asus ProArt P16
Nvidia
Local vendor Asus will launch a pair of Nvidia RTX Spark laptops and one desktop this fall. While details are still scant, the company’s Computex 2026 announcement includes some interesting tidbits about the hardware.
The two laptops are RTX Spark spins on the Asus Pro Art P14 and P16 creator laptops. The pair sport Asus Lumina Pro OLED displays configurable with resolutions of up to 4K 120Hz on the larger P16, or up to 3K on the lighter P14. Both are roughly half an inch thin and less than 4 pounds heavy, with Nvidia RTX Spark SoCs configurable with up to 128GB of memory.
The company’s forthcoming ProArt Mini PC houses the same chip in a squat deskbound chassis that’s roughly half a foot tall.
Dell XPS 16
Dell XPS 16 Creator Edition
Dell
Texas-based Dell will have an XPS 16 Creator Edition 16-inch laptop shipping configurable with an Nvidia RTX Spark chipset and a Tandem OLED display. No word yet on when we can expect this creator-focused laptop to ship or how much it will cost, but it will probably look an awful lot like the Dell XPS 16 (2026) review unit we checked out a few months ago.
HP OmniBook X 14 & Ultra 16
HP OmniBook X 14
HP
The Hewlett Packard team will have RTX Spark-powered HP OmniBook Ultra 16 and HP OmniBook X 14 laptops out later this year that are advertised as “the world’s thinnest RTX Spark [laptops]” in the company’s Computex announcement.
Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n

Lenovo
A model of the 16-inch Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n is slated to ship this year configurable with the Nvidia RTX Spark SoC. That’s all we know so far, but I’ve always found the creator-focused Yoga Pro laptops to be well-designed machines.
Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra
Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra
Microsoft
The Microsoft Surface Ultra was announced this week as a new high-end entry in the long-running laptop line, and it’s going to ship later this year with an Nvidia RTX Spark chipset onboard. The 15-inch mini-LED PixelSense Ultra touchscreen and diverse array of ports make this MacBook Pro-esque creator laptop look promising, but we’ll have to wait and see when it will ship and how much it will cost.
MSI Prestige N16 Flip AI & EdgeMesa N AI+ Mini PC
MSI Prestige N16 Flip AI
MSI
The Prestige N16 Flip AI+ is a 2-in-1 creator-focused laptop that MSI expects to ship later this year. The machine will sport a 16-inch UHD+ Tandem OLED touchscreen powered by the Nvidia RTX Spark SoC, and it will be compatible with the MSI Nano Pen stylus.
Plus, the company will ship an EdgeMesa N AI+ Mini PC that will offer the same Nvidia chipset in a rectangular case with enough ports and bandwidth (between HDMI and USB-C) to support up to four external displays. MSI is pitching the Spark-powered PC as ideal for demanding AI application use, and we’ll have to wait to hear more about how much it will cost.
