NVIDIA prepares to launch Arm-based chips for Windows PCs, according to a Digitimes report citing supply-chain sources. Laptops powered by these new processors are expected in Q1 2026.

The initial chip, codenamed N1X, targets notebooks. Its release anticipates the Windows 11 26H1 update.

This move significantly expands NVIDIA's reach beyond its dominant GPU position into the broader PC processor market.

The roadmap suggests future chip generations N2 and N2X are planned for 2027. This indicates a long-term commitment to the venture.

Major PC manufacturers, including Dell, HP, and Lenovo, are developing systems based on the new platform.
