The Asus ProArt P14 and P16 have officially arrived in Indonesia, powered by an Arm-based Nvidia RTX Spark processor. According to detikinet, they are the first laptops in Indonesia to use the SoC. At the launch in Jakarta on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, Asus demonstrated the devices' ability to render video and run artificial intelligence locally.
A dedicated SoC for AI computing
Nvidia RTX Spark is a system-on-chip designed specifically for AI workloads. It combines a Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 cores and a 20-core Nvidia Grace CPU. Based on information reported by detikinet, the processor promises AI performance of up to 1 petaflop.
Memory capacity is also an important part of the ProArt P14 and P16's capabilities. Asus offers up to 128GB of RAM, allowing the laptops to handle AI models that require large amounts of memory without relying entirely on cloud-based processing.
Video rendering and AI agents
During the launch demonstration, Asus Indonesia Technical Public Relations representative Adrian Pradipta rendered a short video using DaVinci Resolve. The 10-second video, at 4K resolution, finished rendering in 8 seconds. Adrian said the result showed that local AI processing could be used for content creation with strong performance.
Another test involved creating a PowerPoint presentation with the help of the Hermes AI agent. The process used the Qwen 3.6 model with 35 billion parameters and consumed up to 32GB of memory. According to Asus's presentation, the task could be completed quickly thanks to support for up to 128GB of RAM in the latest ProArt laptops.
Generative AI test results
Ahead of the launch, Asus also conducted its own performance tests of the ProArt P14 and P16 using several applications. On a ProArt P14 with 64GB of RAM, Asus transformed a product photo into a cinematic scene at 1024 resolution using the Qwen Image 2.1 model. During the test, GPU memory usage peaked at 19.8GB, GPU utilization reached 100 percent, and the temperature stood at 68 degrees Celsius.
The next scenario converted a photo into a five-second video using the MiniMax H3 model. The process was completed in 5 minutes and 54 seconds, while GPU memory usage peaked at 28.1GB. These figures came from tests conducted by Asus and reported by detikinet.
Cooling for sustained workloads
Rendering and local AI workloads require considerable computing power. To manage heat, the ProArt P14 and P16 are equipped with two fans and two heat pipes. The design directs heat toward the rear of the device and draws in cool air from underneath.
Adrian said the system allows users to perform editing and rendering tasks and run local generative AI for extended periods. According to him, the cooling design is intended to reduce the risk of performance degradation and thermal throttling when the laptops operate under heavy workloads.
