Kenya, 1 June 2026 - Microsoft and NVIDIA have unveiled a new generation of Windows PCs powered by NVIDIA's RTX Spark platform, offering enhanced AI performance, graphics capabilities, and energy efficiency for users.

Microsoft said the new thin-and-light laptops and desktop PCs powered by NVIDIA's RTX Spark platform will enable users to run advanced AI models, creative applications, and gaming workloads more efficiently on their devices.

The RTX Spark platform features up to 6,144 Blackwell RTX cores, up to 20 Arm-based, power-efficient CPU cores, and up to 128GB of unified memory, enabling users to complete projects without heavy reliance on cloud computing.

The first wave of RTX Spark-powered devices will launch this fall and will include products from Microsoft Surface, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and MSI, according to Microsoft.

Among the flagship devices set to be released is the new Surface Laptop Ultra, which Microsoft describes as a high-performance laptop built for creators, developers, and professionals requiring advanced AI capabilities and more computing power.

"NVIDIA and Microsoft share a vision that agents are the future of personal computing. RTX Spark combines NVIDIA's full technology stack with Microsoft Windows and is purpose-built for creators, gamers, and AI developers in the personal AI era,” said Jeff Fisher, Senior Vice President of Personal Computing at NVIDIA.

According to Microsoft, creative applications including Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Blender, DaVinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, CapCut, and Affinity already run natively on Arm-based Windows devices and will be supported on the new RTX Spark-powered PCs.

For gamers, Microsoft said support from anti-cheat providers and game developers will provide access to a broad catalog of PC games on RTX Spark-powered devices, including League of Legends and VALORANT.

The two tech giants have also revealed plans to extend Windows support to NVIDIA's DGX Station platform later this year, powered by the NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip, and will support heavy AI models.
