NVIDIA postponed its N1X system-on-chip release until the first quarter of 2026. The company had originally scheduled the Windows on Arm processor for the second half of 2025. MediaTek collaborated with NVIDIA to develop this enterprise and consumer chip for artificial intelligence personal computers. Microsoft's operating system development delays contributed to the postponement alongside sluggish market adoption rates. NVIDIA continues evaluating design revisions for the N1X and N1 processors.
The semiconductor utilizes TSMC's N3B manufacturing process and combines Grace ARM architecture with Blackwell graphics processing units. Geekbench testing revealed single-core performance of 3,096 points and multi-core results of 18,837 points at 2.81 gigahertz. The chip supports up to 128 gigabytes of LPDDR5X memory and delivers one petaflop of FP4 artificial intelligence computation. NVIDIA plans multiple variants targeting different market segments. The N1X series will compete against AMD Ryzen AI MAX, Apple M4, and Intel AX processors when it launches at CES 2026.
