ASUS ProArt P16 and P14, Powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark, Now Shipping in Canada
ASUS says the creator laptops use up to 128GB of unified memory and an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU to run demanding AI workloads locally.
On Friday, October 16, 2026, ASUS launched the ProArt P16 and ProArt P14 in Canada, powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark, combining an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU and NVIDIA Grace CPU; shipping began today through the ASUS Store and select retailers.
Powered by the RTX Spark architecture, these laptops utilize unified memory of up to 128GB to run complex AI models locally, eliminating recurring cloud-based per-token charges and enabling predictable computing capacity for creators.
The ProArt P16 features a 16-inch 4K OLED touchscreen and measures 12.9mm thin, weighing 1.77kg; connectivity includes three USB4 ports, HDMI 2.1, and an SD Express 7.0 card reader for professional workflows.
Retail availability spans the ASUS Store, Amazon Canada, Best Buy Canada, Memory Express, and Newegg Canada; ProArt P14 starts at C$3,499 and ProArt P16 at C$4,999, with higher-memory configurations arriving later in 2026.
ASUS preloads exclusive applications like MuseTree and StoryCube to integrate generative AI into creative workflows; this ecosystem leverages the CUDA platform to enable local AI development and intelligent asset management on Windows.
ASUS has expanded its ProArt computer series with the new ProArt P14 and P16 laptop computers, which come powered by the power of the new Nvidia RTX Spark processor to run artificial intelligence (IA) models of up to 120,000 parameters locally, as well as offering high performance, Tandem OLED displays and battery up to 100 Wh in a lightweight and slim design.
