# Computex 2026 Will Be NVIDIA’s Biggest Event Of The Year. Here’s What To Expect Source: [https://wccftech.com/nvidia-computex-2026-what-to-expect/](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-computex-2026-what-to-expect/) Although CES 2026 was a massive disappointment for consumers, Computex 2026 looks to inject some much\-needed excitement back into the beleaguered tech space\. In what is arguably the biggest consumer hardware launch of the year,[Nvidia](https://x.com/nvidia/status/2060390710797328574)and[ARM](https://x.com/Arm/status/2060483398746214837)have already started teasing their highly anticipated N1X laptop chip, an APU based on the same[GB10 chip](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-gb10-superchip-soc-3nm-20-arm-v9-2-cpu-cores-nvfp4-blackwell-gpu-lpddr5x-9400-memory-140w-tdp/)used in the[DGX Spark](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-gb10-powered-dgx-spark-gb300-powered-dgx-station-ai-systems/)\. Now, as Jensen prepares to take the stage at Computex next week, let's take a look at what Nvidia has planned for the show\. ## Nvidia's Laptop Chip Finally Launches, Packing 20 CPU Cores With An RTX 5070 Equivalent GPU [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/NVIDIA-N1X-SOC.jpg)*Image Credit: Techpowerup*Nvidia, Arm, and Microsoft have taken Twitter by storm recently, with a series of[cryptic X posts](https://x.com/NVIDIAGeForce/status/2060390710759612662)declaring "A new era of PC", accompanied by coordinates pointing to Taipei Music Center\. This obviously refers to the much\-anticipated N1X laptop APU, packing 20 ARM cores and 6,144 CUDA cores into a single package, all sharing a unified memory pool over a 256\-bit LPPDR5X bus\. [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/NVIDIA-GB10.jpg)*The GB10 Blackwell "superchip" N1X is based on**\.*In theory, this should put[N1X](https://wccftech.com/roundup/nvidia-laptop-chips/)ahead of AMD's strongest APU, but as we've seen with Qualcomm's laptop chips, real\-world gaming performance is still hit\-or\-miss on ARM\-based CPUs, not to mention the significant memory bandwidth deficit with LPDDR5X\. Another important note is that although the GPU has the same core count as a[desktop RTX 5070](https://wccftech.com/review/galax-geforce-rtx-5070-1-click-oc-12-gb-gpu-review-dual-fan-sff/), power consumption will be significantly lower, so expectations should be kept in check\. Obviously, the real draw with N1X will be the ability to allocate massive amounts of VRAM to the GPU from the shared memory pool\. This will allow users to run intelligent, 100B\+ parameter LLMs locally, just as we've seen with Strix Halo in its 128GB config\. Nvidia's advantage here will be more robust, day\-one support for various AI applications, as despite AMD's massive leaps with ROCm recently, CUDA remains king for crucial consumer use cases such as image and video generation\. [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-31-005657_result.jpg)*ASUS hints at a ProArt laptop featuring the N1X chip\.*In terms of partners for this launch, Dell, Lenovo, and ASUS have each either accidentally leaked confirmation of N1X models or hinted at such\. HP hasn't teased \(or leaked\) anything yet, but they'll likely have models available too\. Prices are still up in the air, but given that Strix Halo laptops with 128 GB of RAM retail for close to $3k nowadays, I'd expect a figure north of that for equivalently spec'd N1X laptops\. ## Vera Rubin, Nvidia's Complete "AI Factory" Platform, Rolls Out [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/NVIDIA-Vera-Rubin-_6-scaled.jpg)Nvidia's next\-gen platform for datacenter and AI, "[Vera Rubin](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-rubin-most-advanced-ai-platform-50-pflops-vera-cpu-5x-uplift-vs-blackwell/)", has already been hashed out in significant detail by Jensen across multiple events\. From Rubin GPUs to[Vera CPUs](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-vera-cpu-outperforms-amd-epyc-intel-xeon-in-debut-benchmarks/), Nvidia is coming for the whole AI stack and has developed an impressively broad portfolio of products to present a cohesive solution for any workload\. However, even though we probably won't be seeing any new hardware launches for AI datacenters at Computex, there's still bound to be plenty of new details shared by Nvidia\. Expect to see Jensen dive deeper into the ecosystem and supply chain that enables Vera Rubin, with partnership announcements and availability windows\. ## Physical & Agentic AI Take Center Stage [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/jetson-thor.png)NVIDIA Jetson Thor \| Image Credits: NVIDIANvidia has been steadily investing in Physical AI over the years, and it looks like the time is ripe for the company to go all in\. With recent developments in Agentic AI, we've finally reached the point where independent agents can reason, act, and operate in the real world thanks to Physical AI\. Or at least, that's what Nvidia's pitch will be; myself, I'm not so sure yet\. Regardless, you can expect to hear a lot about how Nvidia's Edge AI platforms, such as Jetson Thor, enable real\-time Physical and Agentic AI applications in robotics and autonomous machines, alongside partnership announcements and new applications\. ## That's Cool And All, But What About Gaming? [](https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/DLSS-5.jpg)In light of recent news that Nvidia has rolled financial reporting for their Gaming business into "[Edge Computing](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-moves-gaming-segment-under-edge-computing-gaming-slows-down-due-to-elevated-prices/)", it should come as no surprise that gaming will take a back seat at Computex 2026\. Hot off the back of the[DLSS 5 controversy](https://wccftech.com/nvidia-dlss-5-game-changing-visuals/), I doubt Nvidia will be too eager to share more details about it, unless they've somehow made massive strides to address the issues gamers had with it since GTC\. In terms of new hardware launches, the best we're going to get is N1X, since Blackwell's Super refresh has been indefinitely delayed due to the RAM crisis\. Perhaps we'll finally see official confirmation that the RTX 3060 has been revived, as has been rumored for the past couple of months, but I wouldn't expect much more than that\.
