@Nicky7282 It'll be three digits. $999. :)

@StormslayerDev if it's 4 digits it is dead on arrival

Anything close to $700 is impossible. Steamdeck is $800 and has last gen hardware. What makes you think this machine with TWO chips a newer CPU, 6 cores instead of 4. Plus a dedicated GPU is going to cost less? I love the steam machine, I want it to be good but I can't lie to myself. It doesn't look great right now

@ingueferroque Valve did not subsidize the Deck. It's not like a console with exclusives. The Steam Machine will be $999. There's no way it can be less.

@HarleyHero_ @StormslayerDev They will subsidize it like they did with the Steam Deck. I doubt they will make anything on these.

@Jaketholemeu Don't worry, DLSS 5 will filter her to look fabulous.

@mask_bastard Well, that's a good start. But we need a nice face too, you see.

if I was in charge of Tomb Raider

@ShaunStromb Except "AI OS" is still an OS, with structure and functions and dependencies. If there's no "power user" mode then it's nothing more than a toy. AI slop is AI slop. this bubble will bust sooner than later and will be begging for all the talented programmers to come back.

@HTWingNut Maybe so. But when an OS doesn't need programs to run, an AI OS makes much more sense. Even Linux is legacy which needs applications for the human to use. An AI OS will just do what the user wants, no applications, no human programers.

while the RTX spark is pretty cool, the future of AI will NOT be run on windows. it’s a fundamentally unserious operating system.

@NVIDIARTXSpark c'mon Nvidia. this is an elementary school presentation using garbage AI video and voice.

NVIDIA RTX Spark reinvents @Windows PCs for the era of personal AI agents, offering a new class of computer that moves from tool to teammate.

@ShaunStromb Linux is going nowhere. Linux is the future. Linux can run on anything, and efficiently too.

@zekramu New OSs will be made to run on AI chips. The big three current desktop OSs will become obsolete.

@ibon_garayXD Source? Maybe with DLSS 5.5 using 100% AI generated frames and 16x frame gen.

@imadbouhafs @NikTek yes, 1440p with Ray Tracing, 100 fps with DLSS

Nvidia N1X laptops look incredible and quite powerful, running 007 First Light and Forza Horizon 6 in a thin Laptop, however why haven’t I seen anything regarding the price? I feel like that is the most important thing here

@imadbouhafs @NikTek I bet it's nothing more than a demo written specifically for their proprietary ARM that they paid the game devs handsomely for with a strict NDA.

@NikTek showing it running 007 First Light and Forza Horizon 6 doesn't tell the full story, did they tell at what resolution? settings? framerates? real frame or FG? Price isn't the only important thing that is messing.

@mrwhats189994 Proof?

@imadbouhafs @NikTek The cpu is arm but can emulate all x86 applications written for windows

@shiri_shh LOL. So many people easily baited by this BS in a black leather jacket.

The laptop hasn't changed in 30 years. NVIDIA just changed it RTX Spark is their first PC chip ever. - RTX 5070 level GPU - 128GB unified memory - 1 petaflop of local AI - thin, light, barely throttles unplugged Your AI agent lives on the machine. 24/7. No cloud. This is step one of the agentic AI PC, and everyone else is about to copy it.

@xchroot Unified CPU & GPU have existed forever. Unless it can efficiently emulate x86/x64 Windows gaming & Win-centric apps are not going anywhere. & with unified everything just more e-waste. No repair or upgrades. need more RAM? buy new PC. Better CPU? Buy a new PC.

@k1rallik X86 is basically done now. ARM with unified GPU and ram is the standard. Intel is now merely IP, foundry, and photonics MBP gets competitors

🚨do you understand what just happened with NVIDIA RTX Spark.. Jensen Huang walked on stage and pulled an entire gaming PC out of his pocket. NVIDIA merged the CPU, RTX GPU, AI hardware and up to 128GB of memory into one Windows-on-ARM superchip and called it the end of the PC as you know it. > 20-core Grace CPU plus a Blackwell GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores - RTX 5070-tier graphics in a 14mm body. > NVIDIA claims 100+ FPS at 1440p in 007 First Light and Forza Horizon 6, on battery. > It runs a 120-billion-parameter AI model locally, no cloud needed. > ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, MSI and Microsoft already have 30+ laptops lined up for this fall. The whole internet has two questions: is it real, and how much. Nobody's asking the third - what happens to every other chipmaker if it is.

@whozae They already do. It's called X3D

@k1rallik Wonder if Nvidia will start making CPU's that will give RTX GPU's a Huge performance boost. But the motherboards on PC would hinder that

@TheMrGromble @k1rallik Not only that, it's a proprietary ARM chip. So unless it can emulate Windows (which will use more resources) they will have a library of about 10 games.

@k1rallik So what you're saying is that it's going to actually be playing at 30 fps and die in 2 hours of playtime max.

@k1rallik Unless they broke the laws of physics, this is nothing interesting. Gaming laptops have existed forever. Power and cooling are always a problem. Will it emulate x86 Windows because PC games don't run natively on ARM. He's trying to sell an AI PC as a gaming PC. Not buying it.

@Mike4661 Extra paperwork? LOL. This isn't 1970.

@Cryptoboyy_Aji The bank charges for all the extra paperwork and the people that have to do it. The fee is also to try to prevent it from happening again.

let me tell you how banks actually work. you have $2 in your account. you spend $4. you’re overdrawn by $2. the bank charges you $35. not because they lost anything. not because it cost them anything. not because $2 hurt a institution sitting on billions. just because the fine print said they could and the people getting hit with these fees aren’t people who forgot to check their balance. they’re people who checked their balance. knew it was low and bought groceries anyway because the kids needed to eat. banks collected $8 billion in overdraft fees last year. $8 billion extracted almost entirely from people who were already struggling. then turned around and called it a service. a service. charging you $35 for being $2 short is not a service. it’s a penalty for being poor. and the same banks that charge you $35 for a $2 mistake got a trillion dollar bailout for their $700 billion mistake. but sure, you just need to manage your money better.

@BlackLabelAdvsr @TimTimboFL You're a clown Jon. That is the price I paid for my home in 2016, at least 50% bigger, 3% interest rate, mortgage is $1200/mo. I can't/won't move because it's too damn expensive.

@TimTimboFL You’re hilarious. Nice rage bait bro.

Hot take: I see a lot of young people say housing isn’t affordable in America. But if you moved from your urban city with Pilates and $20 avocado toast, it probably would be. So what’s really stopping you? Boomers relocated. I relocated in 2016. Why can’t you?

@BlackLabelAdvsr Mortgage rates were like 3% in 2016. I know, that's when I bought my home, and it has doubled in value in those ten years. My mortgage is $1200/mo, that image shows $2400/mo. My home is also at least 50% bigger. That is the problem. I won't move because it's too damn expensive.

@WallStreetApes Or you can just use a credit card that pays back a small % with every purchase, you're still ahead. I earn 5% back on every purchase when using my CC.

Target locations are beginning to charge customers the “merchant fee” on every item they purchase This is the cost of credit and debit card processing fees Big box retails like Target have paid these fees in the past but has decided to now pass the cost onto the customer There was a major legal change with the ‘2025 Visa Mastercard interchange fee antitrust settlement with merchants’ This settlement gave retailers more legal leeway to stop fully absorbing fees and start passing some costs to card users American keep getting robbed blind

@UziCryptoo Your math ain't mathing. $150k pays about $23k in taxes single / $19k married. For low earners the necessities take up the bulk of their paychecks. For the "rich" ($150k isn't rich), it takes pretty much nothing. Rich made their success off the backs of the working class.

Everyone shouts "Tax the Rich"... but look at the facts. A $150k earner pays around $30,600 in federal tax. A $25k earner pays about $1,200. It takes 25 people on $25k to contribute what one person on $150k does. So why drive high earners out of the U.S. when they already shoulder most of the burden? The problem isn't how much tax is collected. The problem is how much the government wastes. Stop blaming the rich. Start holding the government to account.

@Ancap_Christian @SnazzyLabs Can only get a signal in DC and Mar-A-Lago. Uses local free wifi instead of 5G.

@SnazzyLabs Is it carrier locked to trump mobile?

Holy crap it’s actually real. It actually arrived.
