Nvidia is taking significant steps to enhance gaming on Linux by collaborating with anti-cheat software developers for its new Arm-powered RTX Spark superchip.

Nvidia has announced that it is working closely with game developers to ensure compatibility with major anti-cheat solutions like Easy Anti-Cheat and BattlEye. The RTX Spark aims to deliver performance on par with the RTX 5070, depending on whether games are run natively or through emulation. Nvidia is set to release RTX Spark laptops and mini PCs in autumn 2023, offering a range of configurations from 16 GB to 128 GB of unified memory.
