Post by: Redaktion on October 15, 2026, 15:11:01
RTX Spark is Nvidia's first SoC and combines a custom ARM-CPU with a Blackwell GPU and up to 128 GB RAM. The new chips are designed for AI workloads, content creators and you can play games as well. We testes the new RTX Spark SoC and compare it with Apple, AMD, Intel & Qualcomm.

Yeah which is not formatted the same as their normal charts ... but as a picture. As for the others, they must've grabbed the wrong data tables for the article or something?

We are dealing with a small technical issue and we are working on it now, sorry for the delay!

Edit: Problem is fixed!

Great! Now I get to look forward to the full review. :)

BTW I like the power analyses you do at NotebookCheck so much, I actually re-visualize them as interactive x-y bubble charts. I think my account is too new to do a link, I was previously just posting as a guest, but I host the graphs online at powervsperformance dot tiiny dot site.
