Nvidia RTX Spark CPU is now official: "superchip" will power Windows laptops and desktops
Nvidia wants to make your Windows PC an agentic and creator powerhouse
Why it matters: Nvidia just announced what it calls the most efficient PC chip ever built. RTX Spark is a Grace Blackwell system on a chip, 70 billion transistors on TSMC 3nm, with a Blackwell RTX GPU, a 20-core Arm CPU built with MediaTek, and up to 128GB of unified memory. It is purpose-built for agents, and it runs full RTX gaming and creation on the same thin-and-light laptop. It is a genuinely impressive piece of silicon.
Moore's law is hitting a wall, so researchers are stacking silicon chip layers instead of shrinking them
University of Illinois team stacks three active silicon layers on a single chip, achieving 98-100% transistor yield
Forward-looking: For years, the chip industry has chased better performance by shrinking transistors and squeezing more of them onto a flat slice of silicon. That strategy is running into hard limits. A group at the University of Illinois thinks the next gains will come not from going smaller, but from going vertical.
