In context: Arm-based laptops typically lag in the GPU department – after all, unlike x86, the platform isn't known for its gaming performance. But that may soon change. Nvidia has been working with MediaTek on an Arm-based SoC featuring a GPU that could rival the RTX 5070. The chip, reportedly called the N1, is impressive given that it integrates the CPU and GPU into a single package.
