Nvidia to Showcase N1X Processor at Computex 2026

Nvidia

The death of Moore’s Law has been revealed as Nvidia plans to introduce its N1X laptop processor at this year’s Computex. However, it may take some time before laptops equipped with this chip are available for purchase.

If Nvidia is not entirely new to the SoC segment with Arm technology, it still has some ground to cover in the highly competitive consumer laptop segment, where it will compete against companies like Qualcomm, Intel, AMD, and Apple. The N1X chip has not officially surfaced yet, but multiple leaks have given us a good idea of what Nvidia has in store. Moore’s Law is dead and now tells us exactly when we can expect to see the chip in action.

According to sources from the Tom’s supply chain, Nvidia plans to showcase the N1X at Computex, which will take place between June 2 and 5 this year. Laptops equipped with this hardware will be launched in October, but it will be the beginning of 2027 before they are available on a larger scale. A previous report indicated that the N1X platform was riddled with bugs, and apparently, that is still the case, which could be the cause of the delay. Additionally, the N1X platform will not be limited to thin and light laptops and could even power some Alienware gaming laptops.

A previous Geekbench listing showed us that the N1X will come with 10 P-cores and 10 E-cores, similar to the DGX Spark. Unlike the DGX Spark, the processor was designed in collaboration with MediaTek, as previous leaks had suggested. The chip will support up to 128GB of LPDDR5x-8533 RAM and will be manufactured on an unspecified 3nm node from TSMC. N3P seems to be a likely candidate, but since the N1X has been in the works for a long time, N3E could also be plausible.

The GPU is expected to pack a considerable punch, with estimates suggesting it could fall between an RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti due to its 6,144 CUDA cores. All of this performance will come with significant power consumption, with the chip’s TDP ranging from 65 to 120 watts. This is similar to what AMD’s Strix Halo consumes at full load, and if the N1X performance estimates are accurate, they will offer much better GPU performance.

Finally, the N1X will not be Nvidia’s only laptop chip this time. A second variant called N1V has also been spotted online, but there is no information on its contents. Realistically, it could be a low-power variant of the N1X with fewer GPU cores and a lower TDP, specially designed for thin and light laptops. It could be Nvidia’s Panther Lake/Gorgon Point competitor for the entry-level and mid-range segments.
