One easy change makes Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra with RTX Spark a better gaming system - Tom's Hardware

Nvidia's RTX Spark platform prioritizes local AI inference and content creation, but Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra is designed with gaming in mind. The device features a vented keyboard to keep WASD keys cool during intense gaming sessions, a 120Hz screen capable of reaching 2000 nits brightness with HDR games, and what may be the best laptop speakers available.

DLSS challenge

The primary obstacle is the laptop's high-density 3270x2180 display, which places a heavy demand on DLSS upscaling. This computation isn't free, and the load increases with higher output resolutions. The screen has just 14% fewer pixels than a 16:9 4K display, exacerbating the performance impact.
