After rocking Computex 2026 with the extremely impressive, and likely intensely expensive RTX Spark, NVIDIA's Jensen Huang has flown over to South Korea to meet the iconic League of Legends Esports team, T1.

It was only a day ago that Huang was spotted on the Computex 2026 showroom floor, meeting media, exhibitors, and companies while simultaneously digging through an editor's wallet for NTD banknotes to sign and hand out to showgirls. Notably, Huang returned the favor to the editor by repaying him with NTD$10,000, a signed NTD$1,000 note, and a signed wallet.

Keeping in the same lane as signatures, when Huang visited the T1 Esports team and met Faker, Doran, Oner, Peyz, and Keria, he gifted a signed GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. Additionally, Huang held up a signed Faker jersey while declaring that South Korea is the birthplace of Esports and that he is a T1 fan. The meeting with the T1 team is ahead of Huang's visit to several South Korean companies, including Samsung, SK Group, LG, and others producing components powering AI, robotics, and data centers.

"Today, I got to spend some time with CEO Jensen Huang, and it was a very meaningful experience. Graphics cards are extremely important to us as gamers, and I believe there are many people whose contributions have helped make it possible for us to succeed as professional gamers. So overall, it was a very meaningful time today," said T1's Faker

This visit from Huang comes after he declared the 40-year era of keyboard-and-mouse is coming to an end for personal computers.
