## Key points

- RTX Spark brings NVIDIA’s Arm-based platform to ASUS’s ProArt P16.
- The 128GB review model costs $7,000.
- Its appeal centres on local AI work, not value or broad appeal.

## Summary

ASUS’s ProArt P16 is a premium laptop built around NVIDIA’s new RTX Spark platform, which combines an Arm processor, a Blackwell GPU and up to 128GB of unified memory. The review presents it as a capable, polished machine aimed mainly at AI enthusiasts and researchers, rather than a general-purpose upgrade for most buyers.

The laptop has a bright 16-inch OLED display, an aluminium case, a spacious keyboard and a wide range of ports; at 3.9 pounds, it is lighter than a 16-inch MacBook Pro. Prices start at $2,800, while the reviewed 128GB model costs $7,000. Early benchmark results were mixed, with RTX Spark trailing a Snapdragon X2 Elite laptop in some tests, and the article argues that the platform’s niche appeal and high cost limit its audience, even as competition could push PC makers to improve future hardware.
