Shenzhen Suqiao Intelligent Technology, an established Chinese OEM/ODM, is listing a customized GeForce RTX 5090 with 96GB of memory—triple the stock 32GB—for $3,888 on Alibaba, undercutting the standard U.S. price by roughly 35%. The listing contains dubious specs like GDDR6X memory and 14 Gbps speeds, raising questions about accuracy, though the underlying GB202 chip used in Nvidia's 96GB RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell suggests such a memory configuration is technically feasible.

Nvidia showed the first working laptop built on its RTX Spark superchip, the Lenovo Yoga 9n, a 16-inch 2-in-1 with an OLED touch display, six speakers and a 9.2-megapixel webcam. The chip pairs an Arm-based Grace CPU with up to 20 cores and a Blackwell RTX GPU with up to 6,144 cores in a single system-on-a-chip, letting the laptop measure just 0.69 inches thick, nearly matching the MacBook Pro. Nvidia also revealed mini desktop PCs using the same chip, aimed at running local AI workloads.
