Nvidia's ARM-Based AI Chips Expected to Launch in Late 2025
The N1X and N1 SoCs, developed with MediaTek, aim to challenge competitors with advanced AI performance and Blackwell architecture.
- Nvidia is reportedly preparing to launch its first ARM-based SoCs, the N1X and N1, targeting Windows on ARM PCs by late 2025.
- The chips, developed in collaboration with MediaTek and fabricated using TSMC's 3nm process, are expected to be unveiled at Computex in May 2025.
- The N1X is positioned as a high-end model, while the N1 will cater to mid-range applications, with both featuring Nvidia's Blackwell GPU architecture.
- Leaked details suggest the chips will deliver 180-200 tera operations per second (TOPS) of AI performance, significantly surpassing current market leaders.
- Production estimates indicate 3 million units of the N1X will ship in Q4 2025, with 13 million units of the N1 expected to follow in 2026.
