Computex 2026: Asus unveils Pro Art laptops powered by Nvidia RTX Spark chip

Until 2022, AI was something that was thought to be reserved for those who worked in tech labs, research companies, or massive Silicon Valley firms. Then came OpenAI with ChatGPT and people adapted to the technology at a pace the world wasn’t prepared for. Suddenly, there was AI everywhere. Fast forward to 2026, almost every person is proudly using AI in some or the other way. And consumer tech brands know this. At Computex this year, various brands are showcasing their latest products capable of some fantastic things. Now while some brands are pushing AI for productivity, others are focusing on gaming or creativity. But Asus has something for everyone out there.

The brand just unveiled an entire ecosystem of AI-focused devices ranging from creator laptops, ultraportables, desktops, all-in-one PCs, a new tablet, and more. Among all the announcements, there is one product that is bound to steal the spotlight. Yes, the Pro Art P16 powered by Nvidia’s new RTX Spark chip. Let’s take a look at all products that the brand has just unveiled.

The new ProArt laptops

Asus unveiled the new ProArt P16 and ProArt P14 creator laptops, and these are the first Asus laptops powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark.

The RTX Spark platform combines an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores alongside a 20-core NVIDIA Grace CPU. Asus says the setup is specifically designed for AI-native workflows and local AI agents.

So what group of users will this benefit the most? The answer is- creators and developers. They will be able to run advanced AI tasks directly on the laptop itself instead of relying heavily on cloud processing. And well, we all know how that could become a huge deal moving forward.

A lot of AI tools today still depend heavily on internet connectivity and cloud servers. But companies increasingly want AI systems that can work locally for better speed, privacy, and lower latency. That is exactly the direction RTX Spark is targeting.

In addition to this, Asus also says that the platform can deliver up to 1 petaflop of AI performance along with 128GB unified memory. The company is also bundling several AI-focused software tools into the ProArt ecosystem including MuseTree for AI-assisted image and video generation and StoryCube for content workflows.

As for the on-paper specs, the laptops come equipped with all the bells and whistles. 

You get Asus Lumina Pro OLED displays with up to 1,600 nits HDR peak brightness, 120Hz refresh rates, VRR support, and anti-reflection coating. Asus is also introducing two new finishes called Nano Black and Neo White, which is a first for the ProArt lineup.

Zenbook 14: The lightweight and practical option

Not everyone wants a ridiculously powerful AI creator machine though. And that is where the Zenbook lineup comes into the picture. And the all-new Zenbook 14 continues the legacy of the premium laptop.

The Zenbook 14, as per Asus, is designed for people constantly moving between work, travel, classes, and entertainment. The device weighs just 1.1kg and uses an ultralight chassis with a Ceraluminum finish. As for the battery life, the company claims up to 21 hours of usage, alongside fast charging support. 

The Zenbook 14 will also ship with Intel, AMD, and Snapdragon processor options depending on the configuration. That isn’t all. Asus also says these chips support up to 50 TOPS of NPU performance for AI workloads and Copilot+ experiences.

The laptop also gets several quality-of-life additions including a smart gesture touchpad, 1.7mm key travel keyboard, OLED display, Windows Hello support, adaptive dimming, and Microsoft Pluton security.

Vivobook S series: For students and younger users

Asus has also refreshed its Vivobook lineup with the new Vivobook S14 and S16 models.

These machines are powered exclusively by Snapdragon X processors and appear heavily focused on portability and battery life. Asus claims over 25 hours of battery backup, which is just enough for the kind of users the Vivobook targets. 

The company also says the laptops feature full-metal chassis designs, OLED displays, and AI-focused Copilot+ features with up to 45 TOPS NPU performance. And this means a super premium look.

There are also larger 16-inch OLED panel options with 89 percent screen-to-body ratios for users who want more workspace.

On the ‘flip’ side, the new Vivobook S14 Flip and S16 Flip bring 360-degree hinges into the picture. These machines can switch between laptop, tablet, tent, and stand modes while also supporting ASUS Pen 3.0 stylus input.

The flip models also use Snapdragon X processors and include Dolby Audio, Snapdragon Sound, and OLED touchscreens.

Honestly, ASUS seems to be positioning these as flexible devices for students and hybrid users who constantly jump between productivity and entertainment.

Desktops, AiOs, and a new tablet

Apart from laptops, Asus also introduced multiple desktop and all-in-one systems at Computex 2026.

The Asus V700 Mini Tower is probably the most interesting among them visually. Asus says the desktop is inspired by modern home interiors, featuring soft contours and wood-grain finishes instead of aggressive gaming aesthetics.

Under the hood, the system can be configured with up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor alongside NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics.

Then there are the ASUS V200 and V400 all-in-one PCs.

The V200 AiO uses AMD Ryzen processors and targets family users who want cleaner setups for work, study, and entertainment. The V400 AiO, meanwhile, shifts to Snapdragon hardware and gets a larger 27-inch display with AI-focused capabilities.

But the biggest surprise announcement here was the Asus Pad.

This marks Asus returning to the tablet market with a 12.2-inch OLED tablet featuring a 144Hz refresh rate and dual-layer OLED technology. Asus says the tablet uses a MediaTek Dimensity 8300 chipset and packs a 9,000mAh battery.

The tablet also supports Dolby Atmos audio, Wi-Fi 6E, Circle to Search, and ASUS GlideX features.

The product that stole the show

Now Asus has announced a lot of products at Computex 2026. But in my opinion, out of all of these, the ProArt P16 and P14 stand apart from the rest of the lineup. And this is mostly because of NVIDIA RTX Spark.

While most AI PCs today focus on lightweight Copilot+ features, Asus appears to be aiming much higher with the ProArt machines. Running advanced AI workflows locally on a laptop with up to 1 petaflop of AI performance sounds quite futuristic right now.

And if AI-powered creative workflows continue becoming mainstream over the next few years, these ProArt laptops may end up looking like some of the most important announcements from Computex 2026.
