Huang made another appearance at a Computex keynote on Tuesday, when he was invited on stage by the CEO of the semiconductor giant ARM Holdings Rene Haas. On Monday, Nvidia revealed its first fully integrated chip made for Windows laptops and desktops, the RTX Spark, which uses a CPU based on ARM’s chips and is capable of running “personal AI agents,” marking the company’s first attempt to build a fully integrated consumer chip. When Haas congratulated him on the launch of RTX Spark, the Nvidia CEO quipped, “I announce a product. Look at his stock price. Every product I announce, his stock price goes up.

Key Background
The RTX Spark announcement was followed by Nvidia’s best trading day since February as its stock rose 6.26% to $224. The RTX Spark is a cut-down version of the chips used on Nvidia’s AI supercomputers and the company claimed it will be able to run powerful local AI agents, along with popular games and productivity software on Microsoft Windows. Nvidia has been making consumer laptops and desktop GPUs for decades, but unlike the RTX Spark—which uses the AI giant’s own custom-made CPU designed in collaboration with MediaTek—those computers had to be paired with either an Intel or AMD CPU. The Spark’s launch will allow Nvidia to take on rivals like Qualcomm, Apple, Intel and AMD.
