We've been waiting on Nvidia's long-rumored N1X Arm chips for a while at this point. Through several leaks and official teases, the company's ARM-based consumer SoC has excited many as it's poised to open the gates of high-end Arm performance on Windows machines. Interestingly, it seems like the "Chinese Nvidia" has beaten the Green Team to the punch with its own custom Arm chip in a new laptop.
Moore Threads, the region's local darling, has just launched the "MTT AI Book" — a new thin-and-light laptop powered by an in-house "MT1000" CPU. What's special about this chip is that it's Arm-based and features 12 CPU cores clocked at 2.65 GHz (base), along with an unknown GPU that's based on its MUSA microarchitecture. The NPU is capable of delivering up to 50 TOPS of AI compute, similar to AMD's Strix Point.
