Nvidia N1X Specs, Performance Details Suggest It Could Still Be a Killer Chip

The Nvidia N1 and N1X ARM-based SoCs have been hotly anticipated for some time, but they keep getting hit with delays that could push their launch well into next year. When they do become available, though, the potential is there for them to shake up the mobile gaming industry and provide an important third option for gamers seeking performance and efficiency. New Geekbench results give us details on how many cores we can expect the N1X to have, and just how capable it might be in the real world.

The N1X largely matches the specifications of Nvidia's GB10 chip, which it uses in its AI developer mini-PCs. It has 20 cores, potentially in twin 10-core clusters, based on ARM hardware. That's paired up with 48 Blackwell compute units, according to the new Geekbench results. VideoCardz extrapolates that to 6,144 CUDA cores, which is the same number you ...
