Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made a surprise appearance at a 'Portal Internet cafe' near Sinnonhyeon Station in Gangnam District on the afternoon of the 7th to meet with NC CEO Kim Taek-jin. The meeting took place at a 'Surprise Live' event for the MMORPG 'Aion 2,' hosted by NC at the same venue.

CEO Huang entered the internet cafe around 1:55 p.m. He signed autographs for the attendees, asking, "Is everyone playing Aion 2?" and "Who loves Aion 2 the most?" He energized the crowd by adding, "I love Aion 2, too" and "Who loves GeForce?" After greeting CEO Kim, he told the crowd, "Everyone is a fan of yours. They are all playing Aion 2," and even led a chant of "TJ."

CEO Huang stood at the front with CEO Kim and NC officials, expressing his special affection for the Korean market. "Korea has always held a special place in my heart. Korea and GeForce have grown together," he said. "Because Korea invented esports, it was able to boom. Esports is a wonderful export for Korea." He added, "NVIDIA GeForce and Korean esports have grown together, and I have loved you all for a long time."

Saying, "I brought some gifts today," CEO Huang held up a GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. He introduced it as the "Founders Edition RTX 5,090," signed it, and remarked, "This will be the only one of its kind in the world." When CEO Kim held the microphone for him, CEO Huang joked, "TJ is my wingman today."

The giveaway was conducted via an impromptu lucky draw. When CEO Huang called out the numbers, a winner emerged, and he joked, "Korean gamers are really fast, but they are so slow at hearing numbers." CEO Jensen Huang handed the signed RTX 5090 to the winner, saying, "You are rich now."

CEO Huang then continued with the product introduction. "My PC has always been the same throughout my life," he said, emphasizing that the PC is being reborn as a new device for design, creativity, and gaming, as well as for artificial intelligence (AI). He introduced the new chip, stating, "NVIDIA and Microsoft have developed a new architecture, and this chip, which took three years to create, is named 'N1X'."

N1X is an Arm-based AI PC system-on-chip (SoC) developed by Nvidia in collaboration with Microsoft and Taiwan's MediaTek. The chip is featured in the 'RTX Spark' superchip, which combines a Blackwell GPU with Arm-based cores designed by MediaTek. It is scheduled to launch this fall in new Windows PCs from Microsoft, Dell, HP, ASUS, Lenovo, and MSI.

NVIDIA first unveiled the N1X processor during its keynote at Computex 2026 in Taiwan on the 1st, declaring its entry into the PC chip market long dominated by Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, and Apple. At Computex, CEO Huang also revealed plans to expand the AI PC product line, saying, "If there is an N1X, there will be successors like N2X and N3X in the future."

At the event, CEO Huang held up a laptop and said, "Last week, we announced a new computer called the RTX Spark." He described it as "very beautiful, powerful, thin, and with all-day battery life." He then presented vouchers for the RTX Spark to two lucky users, promising, "I will send them to you once mass production begins."

CEO Kim Taek-jin responded, "I heard about it for the first time right here, and it's amazing." CEO Jensen Huang and CEO Kim Taek-jin took selfies with Aion two users before exiting.

Meanwhile, NC is set to launch 'Aion 2' globally this September. Aion 2 supports Nvidia DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) Frame Generation and Nvidia Reflex. DLSS is a technology that uses AI to boost frame rates and resolution, helping maintain high graphical quality and smooth responsiveness even during large-scale battles.
