Nvidia just declared war on the two companies that have owned the PC processor market for decades. The GPU giant announced the RTX Spark Superchip at its GTC Taipei keynote on June 1, an Arm-based chip that combines CPU and GPU functions into a single package designed for on-device AI.
What the RTX Spark Superchip actually is
The Spark Superchip is built on Arm architecture, not the x86 instruction set that Intel and AMD have relied on for decades. It integrates both CPU and GPU capabilities into one chip, specifically engineered to run AI workloads locally on a personal computer.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang didn’t mince words about the ambition behind the product.
“This is going to be the new PC.”
