NVIDIA Enters PC Market with RTX Spark Featuring MediaTek-Co-Designed N1X CPU on TSMC 3nm

　　As traditional CPU leaders such as Intel push further into the AI accelerator market, NVIDIA is moving in the opposite direction—leveraging its dominance in AI computing to expand into the PC processor arena. At GTC Taipei on June 1, CEO Jensen Huang unveiled the NVIDIA RTX Spark, developed in partnership with Microsoft and powered by the new Arm-based N1X processor co-designed with MediaTek, according to NVIDIA and CNBC.　　According to CNBC, the initial rollout will include more than 30 notebook models and 10 desktop systems. RTX Spark-powered devices from Microsoft, Dell, HP, ASUS, Lenovo, and MSI are expected to debut this fall, marking NVIDIA’s first large-scale push into the Windows PC CPU market.　　CNBC adds that the platform combines NVIDIA’s Blackwell GPU architecture with the N1X CPU and 128GB of unified memory, bringing data center-class AI capabilities to personal computers. Notably, the new PC processor will be manufactured using TSMC’s 3nm process, which is currently produced exclusively in Taiwan, according to CNBC.　　More Spec Details　　Interestingly, as noted by The Verge, the flagship RTX Spark mirrors the DGX Spark almost exactly — 20 CPU cores, 6,144 GPU cores, 128GB of LPDDR5X memory — though NVIDIA plans to release leaner, more affordable variants, with some configurations dropping to just 16GB of RAM.　　Meanwhile, NVIDIA has provided additional details on the platform’s performance. According to The Verge, with up to 128GB of unified memory—on par with AMD’s previous-generation Strix Halo—RTX Spark laptops and desktops are also capable of hosting AI agents with up to 120 billion parameters, a capability Microsoft appears eager to integrate into Windows.　　Powered by RTX Spark, NVIDIA claims the system can render a 90GB 3D scene, edit 12K video, or run graphically intensive titles like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle at a smooth 100fps in 1440p—all within a 14mm-thin laptop operating without being plugged into power, the report adds.　　CNBC, citing an NVIDIA spokesperson, reports that RTX Spark is described as being “roughly equivalent” to the company’s flagship RTX 5070 laptop GPU.　　NVIDIA is certainly not the only player eyeing to expand its CPU footprint. As noted by CNBC, Apple now designs its own Arm-based processors for Mac computers, having rolled out a higher-end MacBook lineup powered by its latest M5 chips in March. In the same month, Arm unveiled its first in-house CPU, with Meta reportedly serving as the launch customer for the Arm AGI CPU, according to TechCrunch.

Intel 18A Yields Up 7%–8% Monthly as 2H26 Customers Expected; Said to Push 18A CPUs Amid Shortages

　　Intel’s turnaround appears to be gaining momentum. According to CNBC, Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan said the company’s foundry business is making progress, with 18A process yields now improving by 7% to 8% per month, signaling advancement from earlier challenges.　　More significantly, Tan said the improvements are beginning to attract customer interest, with Intel expecting commitments from multiple foundry customers in the second half of 2026, the report highlights. The remarks align with earlier comments from CFO David Zinsner, who said signals from external foundry customers would become “more concrete” in the second half of the year and into early 2027.　　Intel Reportedly Pushes 18A CPUs Amid Supply Tightness　　Recent CPU shortages have also brought renewed attention to Intel, which is reportedly promoting processors built on its 18A technology. According to Nikkei, sources say Intel is encouraging key PC partners across the U.S., China, and Taiwan to increase adoption of CPUs produced using the process, which only became available late last year.　　Sources add that the company has prioritized supply of chips based on its older Intel 7 process for server and industrial applications. Intel’s push to promote its most advanced chips comes as it seeks to capitalize on the AI race and regain leadership in advanced chipmaking, the report adds.　　14A Seen as Intel’s Next Push Against TSMC　　Beyond 18A, according to CNBC, Tan said Intel’s next-generation 14A process could eventually compete with TSMC, adding that it is expected to arrive around the same time as TSMC’s comparable technology — a development he described as a “major, major breakthrough.” As noted by Wccftech, Tan said Intel expects risk production for its 14A technology in 2028, followed by volume production in 2029, placing its timeline alongside TSMC’s. He added that multiple customers are already engaging with Intel as the company has made its 0.5 PDK available.　　EMIB Shows Early Customer Commitment as Substrate Prepayments Emerge　　Another major technology highlighted by Lip-Bu Tan is EMIB, which he described as one of the most advanced chip packaging technologies. According to Wccftech, Tan said customer commitment has become evident, with some customers even prepaying for substrates to secure supply amid ongoing shortages.　　Wccftech notes that EMIB was recently said to have reached 90% yields. By contrast, Commercial Times notes that TSMC’s CoWoS currently mass-produced 5.5-reticle-size version — the world’s largest today — has already achieved yields of 98%.

ARM CEO Says Agentic AI May Drive CPU Core Counts to 512 as GPU-CPU Ratios Become Less Relevant

　　The rise of agentic AI is fueling fresh debate over the future GPU-to-CPU balance in AI systems, with Arm CEO Rene Haas now weighing in on the discussion. According to a transcript published by Investing.com, Haas said that while CPUs may not outnumber GPUs on a chip basis, they could from a core-count perspective.　　Haas noted that overall CPU demand is likely to increase significantly as agentic AI scales, with data centers potentially requiring more than four times today’s CPU capacity. He said this could create a data center CPU market opportunity exceeding US$100 billion by 2030.　　At the same time, Haas emphasized that the industry is seeing not only an explosion in overall CPU demand, but also rapid growth in the number of cores per CPU. According to Haas, many agentic AI workloads involve independent jobs, flows, or batches running on dedicated CPU cores, increasing the need for higher-core-count processors.　　Haas used Blackwell, Rubin, and other large AI accelerators as examples, noting that these chips are already approaching reticle limits, meaning their size is constrained by the maximum area a lithography mask can print. In contrast, he said CPU core counts could still double or even quadruple over the coming years.　　Haas noted that the Arm AGI CPU already features 136 cores, significantly higher than many competing offerings. Looking ahead, he said the industry is likely to move toward 256-core and even 512-core CPU designs. He added that such high-core-count architectures play to Arm’s strengths, as efficiency per core becomes increasingly critical at larger scales.　　Mydrivers notes that AMD and Intel are moving in a similar direction. AMD’s 2nm Zen 6-based EPYC processors are already expected to reach up to 256 cores with SMT multithreading support, while Intel’s all-E-core Xeon processors have reached 288 cores, with the next generation expected to scale to as many as 512 cores.　　Regarding the Arm AGI CPU launched at the company’s Arm Everywhere event last quarter, Haas said customer response has been “very strong.” He added that customer demand across fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028 has already exceeded US$2 billion, more than double the level projected at launch.

Intel’s Next Gen CPU to Produce at TSMC with 3nm in First Half of Next Year

　　Intel’s upcoming Lunar Lake platform has entrusted TSMC with the 3nm process of its CPU. This marks TSMC’s debut as the exclusive producer for Intel’s mainstream laptop CPU, including the previously negotiated Lunar Lake GPU and high-speed I/O (PCH) chip collaborations. This move positions TSMC to handle all major chip orders for Intel’s crucial platform next year, reported by UDN News.　　Regarding this news, TSMC refrained from commenting on single customer business or market speculations on November 21st. Intel has not issued any statements either.　　Recent leaks of Lunar Lake platform internal design details from Intel have generated discussions on various foreign tech websites and among tech experts on X (formerly known as Twitter). According to the leaked information, TSMC will be responsible for producing three key chips for Intel’s Lunar Lake—CPU, GPU, and NPU—all manufactured using the 3nm process. Orders for high-speed I/O chips are expected to leverage TSMC’s 5nm production, with mass production set to kick off in the first half of next year, aligning with the anticipated resurgence of the PC market in the latter half of the year.　　While TSMC previously manufactured CPUs for Intel’s Atom platform over a decade ago, it’s crucial to note that the Atom platform was categorized as a series of ultra-low-voltage processors, not Intel’s mainstream laptop platform. In recent years, Intel has gradually outsourced internal chips, beyond CPUs, for mainstream platforms to TSMC, including the GPU and high-speed I/O chips in the earlier Meteor Lake platform—all manufactured using TSMC’s 5nm node.　　Breaking from its tradition of in-house production of mainstream platform CPUs, Intel’s decision to outsource to TSMC hints at potential future collaborations. This move opens doors to new opportunities for TSMC to handle the production of Intel’s mainstream laptop platforms.　　It’s worth noting that the Intel Lunar Lake platform is scheduled for mass production at TSMC in the first half of next year, with a launch planned for the latter half of the year, targeting mainstream laptop platforms. Unlike the previous two generations of Intel laptop platforms, Lunar Lake integrates CPU, GPU, and NPU into a system-on-chip (SoC). This SoC is then combined with a high-speed I/O chip, utilizing Intel’s Foveros advanced packaging. Finally, the DRAM LPDDR5x is integrated with the two advanced packaged chips on the same IC substrate.

RISC-V Summit 2022: All Your CPUs Belong to Us

　　In a recent guest editorial here on EE Times, legendary professor David Patterson wrote about busting the five myths around the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA). At the recent RISC-V Summit organized by RISC-V International, the consortium that manages and promotes the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), its president, Calista Redmond, had a far more blunt message: RISC-V is inevitable.　　In fact, she said, RISC-V will eventually have the best CPUs, the best software running on them and the best ecosystem of any microprocessor core family. These are mighty strong words for a nascent ISA that is only about 10 years old and that competes with the far more established Arm and x86 ISAs. It almost sounded like the Borg from Star Trek when they say, “Resistance is futile.”　　RISC-V International CEO Calista Redmond (Source: RISC-V International)　　Redmond’s reason for saying that RISC-V is inevitable is that its growth and success are built upon shared investments of many companies, universities and contributors. RISC-V International has more than 3180 members. Billions of dollars have been invested in the architecture, including national programs from countries and regions such as India and the E.U. This enables the development of the “best” processor in multiple price and performance categories with the contributions of so many ideas and collective knowledge. Because RISC-V is scalable, customizable and modular, it can easily be optimized for different workloads and applications.　　The software ecosystem is growing, and efforts are underway to make software development more efficient with profiles and standards like a single hypervisor standard.　　RISC-V origins　　RISC-V is an open specification like Ethernet. It was developed at University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) with a clean-slate approach to RISC (reduced instruction set computer) designs. There had been many RISC ISAs in the past: 29K, Alpha, Arm, i960, MIPS, PowerPC and SPARC to name some. All those other RISC architectures have been tied to a corporate owner, and most have become outdated.　　The researchers at UC Berkley felt it was time for a clean slate with no corporate owners, initially for educational use, but they soon recognized it was useful for more than instructional purposes.　　With this approach, multiple companies can build CPUs using the open standard. This means that there are many different options to get RISC-V CPUs, and there are more every year. You can download the specifications and design your own CPU. You can download open-source versions of RISC-V CPUs. You can buy a CPU core from multiple IP vendors. You can get a customized CPU core from other vendors. You can buy chiplets with RISC-V cores. You can buy a chip with an RISC-V processor. Or you can buy a full AI chip running with RISC-V cores.

x86 Server CPUs Remain Market Mainstream, 7nm Platform May Help AMD to Increase Market Share

DRAMeXchange, a division of TrendForce, notes that x86 continues to be the mainstream architecture for server CPUs this year, with Intel and AMD being the market leaders. Particularly, Intel dominantly represents around 98% of the total server CPU shipments worldwide in 2018. For the next year, the market share of AMD x86 server CPUs is expected to go up to 5%, after the company’s introduction of 7nm CPUs to the market.“Generally speaking, Intel will remain the leader in server CPU market”, says Mark Liu, senior analyst from DRAMeXchange. However, competitions will come from AMD, who is on pace to migrate to more advanced processes and to offer solutions with better performances and lower power consumption. AMD’s solutions have been adopted by a small scale of cloud service providers like Baidu, Ali Cloud and AWS. AMD may have a chance to scale up in volumes after 7nm products are launched in the future.Purley Gen 2 remains in 14nm process, AMD 7nm solutions may be released in 2H19The latest survey of mainstream server CPU platforms finds that the market penetration rate of product lines based on Intel Purley Gen 1 (Sky Lake) has already reached 60% and is estimated to reach 65% at the end of 2018. Current consumers of Sky Lake products are mainly cloud service providers and alike, which require high-performance computing server products.In terms of product plan for the next year, Purley Gen 2 Cascade Lake will be still produced on 14nm process, the same as Gen 1. The new solution will not become the market mainstream until 2H19. For customized premium products, Intel will release Cascade Lake Xeon-AP (Advance Performance) in 2019. Currently, this product line still remains in the stage of verifying, so its small-scale market release will be delayed to the end of 2019.Around 70% of AMD's product lines have been transferred to new EPYC systems this year, while the company’s Naples solutions have migrated from 28/32nm to 14nm process, with computing performance improved significantly. However, AMD takes only about 2% in the current server CPU market. This is because AMD provides mainly 1-socket solutions, and the limited offerings have constrained the company’s market expansion compared with Intel.AMD's new solution, Rome, will migrate to the 7nm process. The company will also switch from GlobalFoundries to TSMC for future collaboration of product development on 7nm process. Previous problems of high power consumption will also be corrected. The Rome platform server processors are expected to enter production in 1Q19 and have a chance to come onto the market in the second half of next year.DRAMeXchange notes that the penetration of new platforms may drive the average content per box in servers.
