Nvidia RTX Spark Laptops: Every Confirmed Model and Release Date

Nvidia has now locked in the first wave of laptops and desktops built around its RTX Spark platform, and the list is longer and more specific than the chip reveal back in June suggested: Lenovo, Dell, HP, MSI and Microsoft have each confirmed named models, Asus has confirmed its participation, and Acer and Gigabyte are set to join in a second wave. The first machines begin shipping in October 2026, with several already listed as arriving "this fall" directly from the manufacturers' own announcements.

If you still need the basics on what RTX Spark actually is, Pandromeda's earlier rundown of RTX Spark specs, price and release timing covers the chip itself in detail. This piece is about the hardware: which specific laptops and desktops are confirmed, what their makers have said about memory and displays, and when each one is actually expected to show up.

Which RTX Spark laptops are actually confirmed

Nvidia's own announcement material names six manufacturers for the first wave — Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface and MSI — and each of those companies has since put its name behind at least one specific model. Acer and Gigabyte are confirmed as RTX Spark partners too, but neither company has published a model name, display spec or ship date yet. Here is where things stand, model by model, based on what each manufacturer has published or demonstrated so far.

Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n and Yoga 9n 2-in-1

Lenovo has put forward two RTX Spark machines rather than one. The Yoga Pro 9n is the more conventional clamshell of the pair, built as a 15.3-inch creator laptop aimed at developers and visual artists running local AI models and 3D rendering workloads. It pairs the RTX Spark platform's 20-core Grace CPU and Blackwell GPU with memory configurations reported up to 128GB, and it uses a 2.5K PureSight Pro OLED panel running at a 165Hz refresh rate with roughly 1,100 nits of peak HDR brightness.

The Yoga 9n 2-in-1 shares the same RTX Spark silicon but moves to a 16-inch, 360-degree convertible chassis with a 2.8K PureSight Pro OLED touchscreen at 120Hz, aimed at creators who want pen input and tablet-style use alongside full laptop performance. Its memory ceiling is lower than its clamshell sibling, at up to 64GB of unified memory, reflecting that it's positioned as the more portable, flexible machine of the two rather than the top-spec option. Lenovo showed both machines publicly around IFA 2026, with availability grouped into the same fall 2026 window as the rest of the first RTX Spark wave.

Dell XPS 16 Creator Edition

Dell's entry is the XPS 16 Creator Edition, which the company has described on its own blog as its first laptop built around the RTX Spark superchip. Dell is leaning on the platform's shared memory pool — up to 128GB — to pitch the XPS 16 as a direct alternative to Apple's unified-memory approach on MacBook Pro, specifically for 3D work, 4K video timelines and AI-assisted creative tools. The display is a Tandem OLED panel with True Black HDR 600 certification, and Dell has kept practical creator-focused ports, including a full-size SD card reader and HDMI, on the chassis.

Dell has not yet published a release date or price for the XPS 16 Creator Edition beyond grouping it into Nvidia's broader fall 2026 RTX Spark launch window; its own materials describe the Computex reveal as a "first look," with configuration and availability details still to come.

HP OmniBook X 14 and OmniBook Ultra 16

HP has confirmed two RTX Spark laptops under its OmniBook line, and it's pitching both on thinness as much as performance. The OmniBook X 14 is positioned as a more portable option for creators and developers who work away from a desk, with HP citing a rear chassis height of just 13.53mm. The OmniBook Ultra 16 is the larger, higher-end model, aimed at developers and creators running bigger AI models and heavier creative workloads; HP lists configurations supporting up to 128GB of unified memory, a 16-inch OLED display with VESA DisplayHDR True Black 1000 certification, quad speakers, a 99 watt-hour battery rated for up to 17 hours, and a new "tower hinge" chassis design intended to improve airflow around the RTX Spark silicon.

HP says the OmniBook Ultra 16 is expected at HP.com and Best Buy this fall, with the OmniBook X 14 following through HP.com and other retailers in the same window. Pricing for both has not been announced; HP's own release says further device details and pricing will come closer to availability.

MSI Prestige N16 Flip AI+

MSI's first RTX Spark machine is the Prestige N16 Flip AI+, a 16-inch convertible 2-in-1 that folds into laptop, tablet, tent and presentation modes. MSI has built the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ around an OLED display and bundled a stylus for sketching and note-taking, positioning it toward creators and AI developers who want a single device that can switch between content creation, local AI workloads and everyday productivity. As with the rest of the first-wave devices, MSI has tied the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ to Nvidia's broader fall 2026 RTX Spark rollout rather than publishing its own standalone release date or price.

Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra

Microsoft's contribution is arguably the highest-profile of the group: the Surface Laptop Ultra marks the first time a Surface laptop has been built around an Nvidia platform rather than an Intel or Qualcomm chip. Microsoft's own product page and Windows Blog post describe a 15-inch Mini-LED PixelSense Ultra touchscreen reaching up to 2,000 nits of peak HDR brightness — which Microsoft calls the brightest display it has shipped on a Surface — paired with up to 128GB of unified memory, full CUDA support, and roughly 1 petaflop of AI compute, enough, Microsoft says, to run large language models up to 120 billion parameters locally.

The Surface Laptop Ultra weighs under 4.5 pounds, comes in Platinum and Nightfall finishes, and keeps a full port selection — HDMI, USB-C, USB-A, an SD card slot and a headphone jack — that Microsoft says was "picked on purpose" for creators. Microsoft states the Surface Laptop Ultra will be available later this year, without yet publishing an exact date or price.

Asus and the rest of the first wave

Asus is named directly in Nvidia's own RTX Spark materials as a first-wave manufacturer, alongside Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface and MSI. Unlike those companies, Asus has not yet published its own detailed press materials naming a specific model, display spec or battery figure for its RTX Spark machine, so for now its participation is confirmed at the platform level rather than at the individual-device level. Expect Asus to fill in those details as its own launch date approaches, in the same fall 2026 window Nvidia has set for the rest of the first wave.

Acer and Gigabyte: confirmed, but later

Nvidia's RTX Spark announcement explicitly lists Acer and Gigabyte as manufacturers "to follow" the initial six-brand launch, which puts both companies' participation beyond doubt even though neither has released a model name, spec sheet or shipping date. That's a meaningfully different status from Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft and MSI, which have all now shown at least one named, specced RTX Spark device publicly. If you're specifically waiting on an Acer or Gigabyte machine, the realistic expectation set by Nvidia's own language is a launch sometime after the October wave, not alongside it.

What's actually inside an RTX Spark laptop

Every device on this list, regardless of maker, is built around the same underlying Nvidia platform rather than a maker-specific chip. RTX Spark combines a 20-core, Arm-based Nvidia Grace CPU with a Blackwell RTX GPU carrying up to 6,144 CUDA cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores with FP4 precision, connected over Nvidia's NVLink-C2C chip-to-chip interconnect. The headline feature is a single pool of unified memory, shared between CPU and GPU, that Nvidia scales up to 128GB on top configurations — the same shared-memory approach that made Apple's own silicon attractive to creative professionals, now applied to a Windows-on-Arm platform. Nvidia rates the platform at up to 1 petaflop of FP4 AI compute, enough for 120-billion-parameter class local language models, alongside support for the usual RTX stack: ray tracing, DLSS, Reflex and G-SYNC for the gaming side of these machines.

For readers deciding between this new wave of Arm-based machines and the Intel and Qualcomm chips that already power most Windows laptops, Pandromeda's comparison of Snapdragon X2 Elite and Intel Core Ultra 300 laptop chips is a useful reference point for how Arm and x86 options currently stack up on battery life and compatibility, since RTX Spark adds a third Arm-based option into that same conversation. It's also worth knowing that RTX Spark machines sit alongside, rather than replace, the broader Copilot+ PC category; Pandromeda's explainer on what qualifies as a Copilot+ PC covers the baseline AI PC requirements that these new devices are being layered on top of.

The October 2026 release window, explained

None of the six first-wave manufacturers has published a single, universal release date — instead, each is independently targeting "this fall" or "later this year" for its own RTX Spark model, with October 2026 the month most consistently cited as when the earliest units start reaching retail. HP has been the most specific publicly, pointing to HP.com and Best Buy for the OmniBook Ultra 16 this fall; Microsoft says the Surface Laptop Ultra arrives in stores later this year; Dell, Lenovo and MSI have all shown finished or near-finished hardware without yet attaching exact ship dates. None of the first-wave companies has announced pricing yet, with HP, Dell and others each saying configuration and price details will follow closer to their respective launches.

That rolling, staggered pattern is worth keeping in mind if you're shopping this fall: "RTX Spark laptop" is not a single product launching on one day, but a platform that Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft and MSI are each shipping on their own schedule within the same broad window, with Acer and Gigabyte adding more options afterward.

What to watch next

The near-term signal to watch is pricing. None of the six confirmed first-wave manufacturers has published a price for its RTX Spark laptop, and given the platform's positioning against high-end creator hardware, that number will do more than the spec sheets to determine which of these machines actually sells. Expect HP, Dell, Lenovo, MSI, Microsoft and Asus to fill in exact ship dates and pricing through October as retail listings go live, and expect Acer and Gigabyte to use that same window to finally attach model names and specs to their already-confirmed RTX Spark plans. Pandromeda will update this roundup as individual configurations, prices and firm ship dates are confirmed by each manufacturer.
