ASUS Shows RTX Spark Mini PCs and Laptop Designs at IFA 2026

At IFA 2026 in Berlin, Germany, ASUS introduced mini PCs and laptops powered by NVIDIA's RTX Spark SoC. Starting with the GR1X mini, ASUS showcased the power of the RTX Spark N1X in grey or black aluminium enclosures. These are available with up to a 6,144-core GeForce RTX "Blackwell" GPU, alongside up to 20 cores on the NVIDIA "Grace" CPU, delivering a total of 1 PetaFLOPS of FP4 compute power. The entire package can be configured with up to 128 GB of LPDDR5X unified memory, all running on the Windows 11 desktop operating system. However, ASUS will also offer less powerful configurations, such as the second N1X configuration with a slightly less powerful 18-core "Grace" CPU, a "Blackwell" GPU with 5,120 CUDA cores, and 24-32 GB of LPDDR5X unified memory. The system is cooled by a custom copper heatsink paired with two blower fans, each with 109 blades. Read full story
