Most users are familiar with MediaTek’s smartphone chips. However, much like other chipmakers, the company also has a respectable tablet and notebook processor lineup. Now, MediaTek is expanding this lineup with the new Kompanio 900T series.

Announced last week, the Kompanio 900T powers the industry’s more affordable devices. The chipset complements the company’s recently launched Kompanio 1300T, which graces premium tablets across the market.

The Kompanio 900T is a 6nm chipset with an octa-core architecture. It packs in two Arm Cortex-A78 premium cores with six Arm Cortex-A55 smaller ones. Besides the eight cores, the chipset also comes with an Arm Mali-G68 GPU and MediaTek’s AI processor.

The chipset can support up to 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rates. It can also handle up to LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 internal storage. The chipset’s AI processor can help put out better images with the display. It can enhance image quality such as from standard quality to HD.

As with a lot of chipsets today, the Kompanio 900T has a 5G modem that covers sub-6GHz networks. 5G UltraSave balances 5G support with battery life. In terms of connectivity, the chipset can also support 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2.

MediaTek has not listed devices which will come with the chipset. However, they do promise that supported devices are coming out soon including Chromebooks.

There’s been much ado about the NVIDIA RTX Spark. By now, you’ve probably heard a lot about the upcoming reinvention of PCs. But, as a regular consumer, it’s hard to visualize just how this revolution looks like. Thankfully, in NVIDIA’s demo suites, a few manufacturers got to showcase their take on an RTX Spark notebook. And all of them are coming out in the fall.

ASUS ProArt P14 and P16

Unfortunately, none of these brands could share comprehensive details about their laptops beyond a promise for raw power. All of these models aren’t the final version yet.

However, just from what we can tell, these notebooks do feel different from the standard fare of laptops today. For one, they are deceptively heavier. Though all of the OEMs promise a much thinner profile, they’re either packing a lot of tech inside or are using denser materials for their chassis. But again, these are engineering units, so who knows how heavy these things will actually be?

Secondly, based on NVIDIA’s demos, they can do a lot of heavy lifting. NVIDIA says that these superchips are meant for developers and creators, but gamers will also find joy in their performance. DLSS 4.5, in particular, feels like a true revolution in terms of graphics.

Thankfully, fall isn’t too far away. If you can wait, the next evolution of PCs is just around the corner.
