Users running ARM-based Windows systems now have updated tools to identify and monitor new NVIDIA hardware. CPUID released versions of CPU-Z and HWMonitor that recognize the upcoming RTX Spark platform. This matters because early adopters of ARM64 PCs need accurate system information before the hardware officially launches.
Updates enable system detection and telemetry for the 20-core ARM Blackwell platform
The update targets the RTX Spark development kit, which combines a 20-core ARM processor with a Blackwell GPU. The GPU includes 6,144 CUDA cores and runs Windows 11 on ARM64. CPUID tested the software remotely on an ASUS P16 system to verify detection capabilities.
- CPU-Z ARM64 Version: 1.06
- HWMonitor ARM64 Version: 1.06
- RTX Spark CPU: 20-core ARM processor
- RTX Spark GPU: NVIDIA Blackwell GPU featuring 6,144 CUDA cores
- RTX Spark OS: Windows 11 on ARM64
CPU-Z ARM64 version 1.06 improves detection of the new platform architecture. HWMonitor ARM64 version 1.06 adds CPU and GPU telemetry for the same hardware. The release notes state that these updates ensure the tools can read sensor data from the new silicon.
Both applications are available now as ZIP packages from the CPUID website. We have covered the last CPU-Z update, where similar stability themes appeared. These tools help users verify their system configuration without waiting for official driver releases.
The software supports the RTX Spark system specifications immediately upon release. Users can download the packages to check their hardware details. The update prepares the ecosystem for the expected launch of these ARM64 devices.
