NVIDIA has introduced RTX Spark, a new computer chip designed to turn Windows PCs into machines that can act more like personal assistants powered by artificial intelligence (AI).
Instead of only opening apps and clicking through menus, the idea is that users can simply ask the computer to do tasks, and the system handles more of the work on its own.
NVIDIA says RTX Spark brings together many of its existing technologies, including CUDA, RTX, TensorRT, and DLSS, into one system for laptops and small desktop computers. The goal is to run AI tools, creative apps, and games directly on the PC, while using less power and lasting longer on battery.
“The PC is being reinvented,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “For 40 years, you launched apps. Click. Type. With RTX Spark and Microsoft Windows, you ask, and the PC does the work. This is the new PC.”
RTX Spark combines a powerful graphics processor with a main processor designed for efficiency. NVIDIA says this setup is built to handle demanding AI tasks, creative workloads, and gaming on a single system. MediaTek worked with NVIDIA on part of the processor design to improve efficiency and performance.
NVIDIA and Microsoft are also building RTX Spark as a platform for AI “agents” that can run directly on Windows computers. These agents are meant to help users complete tasks like writing, searching, editing, and organizing files without switching between multiple apps.
To support this, the companies are adding new security systems in Windows and a tool called NVIDIA OpenShell, which controls what AI agents are allowed to do, and when data can stay on the PC or be sent to the cloud. The focus is on keeping sensitive information on the device while still allowing cloud use when needed.
Developers such as Hermes Agent and OpenClaw are already building apps that use these AI agents, including tools that can work across multiple programs, generate content, and search through local files.
RTX Spark is also designed for heavy computing tasks. NVIDIA says it can handle advanced AI models and large workloads with high memory capacity, making it suitable for professional creative work and real-time applications.
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the goal is to bring “unlimited intelligence” into Windows, where AI becomes a normal part of how people use their computers.
For gaming and creative work, RTX Spark supports high-end graphics, video editing, and large 3D projects. It also enables smoother gameplay with advanced visual effects at high frame rates.
NVIDIA is working with Adobe to optimize apps like Premiere Pro and Photoshop for the new system. These tools will run faster and use AI features for editing, image creation, and video production.
RTX Spark-powered laptops will be thinner and lighter than many high-performance PCs today, starting at about 14 millimeters thick and around three pounds in weight. They will come in 14-inch and 16-inch models, along with small desktop versions.
Major PC brands, including ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface, and MSI, are expected to release RTX Spark devices starting this fall, with more models from Acer and GIGABYTE to follow.
