Intel x86 processors with GeForce RTX graphics are reportedly coming in 2028

At Computex 2026, the biggest announcement, from a consumer technology perspective, was RTX Spark. NVIDIA's all-in-one SoC that pairs its Arm-based Grace CPU technology (developed in partnership with MediaTek) with RTX Blackwell graphics. With the RTX Spark launch on track for later this year, these chips are set to power a range of premium laptops and mini PCs, with a focus on powerful local AI, creative workloads, and ray-traced PC gaming.

With its Arm CPU cores, RTX Spark devices will ship with an overhauled and optimized version of Windows on Arm, which NVIDIA has been working with Microsoft closely on. However, RTX Spark isn't the only all-in-one chip with NVIDIA graphics that's set to compete with the likes of Ryzen AI, as Intel is reportedly building a new line of x86 CPUs with integrated GeForce RTX graphics. Although details are scarce, both NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan have confirmed this collaboration last year.

According to a new report over at VideoCardz, citing a former tech site editor, Erdi Özüağ, who has apparently seen Intel's current roadmap, Intel's first x86 processors with integrated RTX graphics are on track for a Q1 2028 release. And with that a potential announcement and reveal could take place at CES 2028.

The report also notes that these processors will be a part of Intel's Serpent Lake family, which will pair Intel CPU technology with an NVIDIA GPU tile for AI, gaming, and other RTX-powered workloads. Aside from this, details on core counts, CUDA configuration, memory, and other elements remain unknown, so we'll have to wait to learn more. With the impending release of RTX Spark and this new Intel collaboration, NVIDIA's expansion into the non-discrete GPU market for consumers could be a potential disruptor, as currently there are no single-chip PC devices, whether that's laptops, mini PCs, or gaming handhelds, that feature RTX hardware and access to technologies like DLSS.
