NVIDIA says RTX Spark laptops are available today from ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft and MSI, with more systems to follow. In its launch announcement, ASUS confirmed its own ProArt models for the first wave, but NVIDIA’s headline figure is that the laptops start at USD 2,599 globally, and pricing and configurations vary by region. Buyers can order through the manufacturers’ websites and major retailers, and new Perplexity users get a limited-time promotion.
The line-up is broad enough that most premium Windows buyers will find a familiar badge:
| Maker | RTX Spark models |
|---|---|
| ASUS | ProArt P14, ProArt P16 |
| Dell | XPS 16 |
| HP | OmniBook Ultra, OmniBook X 14 |
| Lenovo | Yoga Pro 9n |
| Microsoft | Surface Laptop Ultra |
| MSI | Prestige N16 Flip AI+, Prestige N16 |
One chip, one memory pool
Every system uses the same superchip, which combines a Blackwell RTX GPU with an NVIDIA Grace CPU. NVIDIA says MediaTek collaborated on the custom CPU design. The headline numbers are up to 128GB of unified memory and up to 1 petaflop of FP4 AI performance. Because the CPU and GPU share that memory, a large language model and a heavy creative project can sit side by side without fighting over a separate VRAM budget. That design is behind NVIDIA’s claim that the laptops can render 3D scenes of 90GB or more and edit 8K 4:2:2 video, even unplugged.
We covered the original reveal in our RTX Spark announcement story, and Microsoft’s flagship has its own Surface Laptop Ultra price and specs breakdown. What’s new today is that you can actually buy the hardware.
Local agents are the pitch
NVIDIA frames RTX Spark as a machine for running personal AI agents, not just chatting with a cloud model. It says guided installers set up agents, including GitHub Copilot, Hermes, OpenClaw, Perplexity, Pi, and WorkBuddy, without a command line. NVIDIA’s own Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B 24GB model, a 74-billion-parameter model tuned for tool calling, targets supported RTX Spark configurations. For safety, the OpenShell secure runtime and Microsoft Execution Containers let users control what an agent can touch.
Microsoft’s executive vice president, Yusuf Mehdi, described Windows as a platform for “hybrid intelligence”, where AI runs locally when it makes sense and reaches the cloud when needed. An RTX Spark laptop can also share its horsepower: NVIDIA PAIR lets it serve inference to Windows, Linux, and macOS machines on the same home network, as we covered in our PAIR explainer.
Creators, developers and gamers
On the creative side, NVIDIA says Photoshop and Premiere offer native RTX Spark support through beta releases available at launch, with Substance 3D coming soon. NVIDIA Broadcast 2.3 adds background-noise removal for existing recordings, and beta RTX Video features offer up to 4K super resolution and 4x frame generation. In ComfyUI, new RTX Video nodes can turn 15fps AI-generated video into 60fps footage without per-use cloud charges.
Developers get native CUDA support, Windows Subsystem for Linux and a Windows Developer Config for setup. NVIDIA and Microsoft say they’ve prepared the first PyTorch-CUDA build for Windows on Arm, the first Python build that is native by default, the first native Conda installer, and support for 97% of the top 15,000 Python packages.
For gamers, NVIDIA says RTX Spark plays AAA titles at 1440p at over 100fps. Launch support covers Cyberpunk 2077, Fortnite, Gears of War: E-Day, Marvel Rivals, World of Warcraft and NBA 2K27. The last of those uses DLSS 5 with 3D-Guided Neural Rendering, and a new AI model that NVIDIA says is twice as fast and available today lifts DLSS 5 frame rates by up to 1.4x.
UAE availability
NVIDIA’s release doesn’t list individual countries. In the UAE, ASUS opened pre-orders on 8 October for the ProArt P14 at AED 12,999 and the ProArt P16 at AED 16,499, with a free ProArt monitor during pre-orders. ASUS UAE hasn’t said when it will ship stock locally. We haven’t found UAE, Saudi or Egyptian pricing from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft or MSI yet. Our earlier look at ASUS’s regional AI PC plans has the background on that range.
Are RTX Spark laptops available in the UAE today?
Only ASUS has confirmed UAE pricing so far, and that’s for pre-orders on the ProArt P14 and P16. NVIDIA says the laptops are available globally through manufacturer websites and major retailers, but it doesn’t name countries, so check your local retailer for stock.
How much memory do RTX Spark laptops have?
NVIDIA says up to 128GB of unified memory shared between the CPU and GPU. Configurations vary by model and region, and the NVIDIA release doesn’t say which memory options each laptop offers.
Can they run AI agents without the cloud?
NVIDIA says yes. Supported agents and models run locally on the laptop, keeping processed code and context on the device. Heavier jobs can still go to the cloud.
