Microsoft and Nvidia announced a partnership at the Build 2026 conference to develop a new class of Windows PCs. These devices are designed to run complex artificial intelligence applications locally instead of relying on the cloud.

The hardware utilizes Nvidia’s new RTX Spark system-on-chip. This component integrates Blackwell GPU and Grace CPU architectures into a single system.

The initiative aims to enable AI agents to operate securely and privately on individual devices. Microsoft is releasing new security tools and developer kits to position Windows as the central platform for AI development.
