Microsoft and NVIDIA Launch RTX Spark Windows PCs

Microsoft and NVIDIA announced the world’s most powerful and efficient thin-and-light Windows PCs ever at NVIDIA GTC on May 31, 2026. The new systems are accelerated by NVIDIA RTX Spark and purpose-built for the new wave of agents, unlocking momentum for developers, creators and power users.

Multi-year collaboration reaches key milestone. The announcement marks a key milestone in the rich, multi-year, full-stack collaboration between Microsoft and NVIDIA spanning gaming, AI and cloud. The partnership ranges from DirectX and RTX to NVIDIA-accelerated AI workloads on Azure, driving end-to-end innovation for shared customers. These next-generation Windows PCs represent the next step on that journey.

RTX Spark brings 1 petaflop AI performance. RTX Spark delivers 1 petaflop of AI performance and industry-leading performance-per-watt. It includes full stack NVIDIA AI and RTX graphics technology with up to 6144 Blackwell RTX cores, up to 20 power-efficient cores built with the Arm architecture and up to 128GB of unified memory. Paired with Windows, it unlocks capabilities for advanced workloads, building with preferred tools and playing favorite games.

Windows tuned for heterogeneous architecture. Microsoft tuned Windows to bring out the full performance of RTX Spark. Workload profile scheduling was implemented and optimized for RTX Spark, enabling the Windows scheduler to more efficiently scale workloads across all 20 cores. This ensures the best performance and efficiency whether checking email or running an agent locally to debug code.

Power, thermal and graphics advancements. Microsoft worked with NVIDIA to enable the Microsoft Power and Thermal Framework on RTX Spark to maximize performance and power on the go. The framework enables industry-leading power efficiency while staying cool under intense workloads. RTX Spark takes advantage of advancements to DirectX 12 including support for neural rendering and optimized ray tracing performance and has been tuned to maximize the Blackwell GPU, making it one of the best places to play on Windows.

Local AI capabilities unlocked. Microsoft and NVIDIA worked to unlock the power of the GPU for local AI workloads through Windows ML. This enables AI developers to leverage TensorRT natively in Windows. The platform improvements focus on improving how Windows supports unified memory systems to realize the potential of up to 128GB on RTX Spark.

Shared vision for agent-driven computing. “NVIDIA and Microsoft share a vision that agents are the future of personal computing,” said Jeff Fisher, senior vice president of personal computing at NVIDIA. “RTX Spark combines NVIDIAs full technology stack with Microsoft Windows and is purpose-built for creators, gamers and AI developers in the personal AI era.” The combination of Windows platform leadership with NVIDIA silicon, graphics and AI leadership has produced powerhouse laptops that will redefine how developers and creators interact with their PCs.
