The anticipated Nvidia N1X CPU is seeing some major roadblocks lately, and now it's reportedly been pushed back until early 2026 — with Microsoft's next Windows OS tipped to be setting it back.

This includes delays on Microsoft's next-gen Windows OS (possibly Windows 12), Nvidia's own design changes to the silicon and the market seeing a smaller demand for notebooks.
