The benchmark has shown up for the NVIDIA N1X, the company’s upcoming chipset that houses an integrated GPU. NVIDIA has always been known for its work in the discrete GPU market. In recent years, it’s been making a name for itself in the AI processing market, providing companies that develop large language models with the technology they need for all those intensive AI tasks. One area NVIDIA hasn’t really delved too much into is chipsets that feature integrated graphics. However, it’s been rumored to have been working on two models of this sort of chipset for months now.
With the recent benchmarks of the NVIDIA N1X showing up on Geekbench, it’s becoming clear that NVIDIA is keen on producing this chipset to deliver considerable performance. However, it’s unclear exactly how much performance. It shouldn’t be expected to see this chip surpass any of the discrete desktop GPUs.
The NVIDIA N1X benchmark shows it has more CUDA cores than the RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU
According to the benchmarks, which were spotted by Notebookcheck and guru3d, there’s quite a bit of data to be pulled from the test. The first thing you’ll notice is the OpenCL score, which is listed at 46,361. The more interesting bit of detail, however, is that the N1X comes with 6,144 CUDA cores. This is the exact same number of CUDA cores as the desktop version of the RTX 5070. And it’s slightly higher than the laptop version of the RTX 5070 Ti. That being said, the OpenCL score for the N1X is still on a chip that is probably in the early stages of development.
NVIDIA is expected to launch this chip sometime next year. That means there’s plenty of time for the performance to change as the hardware matures and progresses further into development. It’s too early to tell what that might look like, but chances are it’ll be an improvement over what’s shown in this test data. It’s also worth noting that this, at the very least, gives a picture of what’s to come with the chip. Even if it will change over the next several months.
