The cheapest Nvidia RTX Spark gaming laptops are $2,599.99: here's where to pre-order the full roster

GamesRadar+ reports that pre-orders for the first wave of NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops are open ahead of an October 16 release, with the least expensive models starting at US$2,599.99. The roundup covers systems from Microsoft, ASUS, HP, MSI, Lenovo, and Dell, including configurations using 18-core or 20-core versions of the RTX Spark platform and memory options ranging from 24GB to 128GB. This is launch and availability coverage, not an independent gaming review.

The article says the entry-level Surface Laptop Ultra and ASUS ProArt P14 share the US$2,599.99 starting point, while higher configurations vary substantially in display, memory, storage, and processor core count. GamesRadar+ notes that actual gaming performance remains to be seen, particularly because RTX Spark systems use an Arm-based operating environment with some emulation. Frame rates will also depend on the game, drivers, upscaling, frame generation, power limits, cooling, and compatibility with anti-cheat and other PC software.

For Canadian buyers, the reported US prices are not Canadian checkout prices. Taxes, exchange rates, regional configurations, retailer availability, warranty coverage, shipping, and local inventory may materially change the total. Canadian manufacturer listings and independent testing should be checked before treating the pre-order roster or its listed prices as evidence of local availability or gaming value.
