Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra to use 110W RTX Spark Superchip

Microsoft has indicated that the upcoming Surface Laptop Ultra will feature an RTX Spark Superchip with a thermal design power (TDP) of 110W. This disclosure provides insight into the power consumption and thermal management capabilities of Nvidia's new mobile GPU. While a higher TDP generally correlates with better performance, the exact performance gains will depend on various factors including the chip's voltage-frequency scaling and how power is dynamically allocated between the CPU and GPU within the laptop's constrained chassis.
