Benchmark listings reveal 20 CPU cores and 48 SM GPU for Nvidia N1X SoC
After a period of relative quiet, new evidence of Nvidia's high-performance N1X consumer SoC has surfaced. Fresh entries in the Geekbench and Furmark databases have given us our best look yet at the hardware powering this chip, even if the early performance numbers are, as expected, nothing to write home about.
A new Geekbench entry (via VideoCardz) for the N1X has seemingly confirmed some of its core specifications. The listing points to a 20-core CPU configuration, likely arranged in two 10-core clusters. Moreover, it lists a GPU with 48 CUs, which, assuming these are standard Nvidia Streaming Multiprocessors (SMs), would put the iGPU with 6,144 CUDA cores, matching the RTX 5070. Such specs suggest the N1X is identical to the GB10 used in Nvidia's AI developer mini-PCs. As for the score, it's about the same as an RTX 3050 laptop GPU, meaning driver development is far from complete.
Corroborating this is a new entry in the Furmark database for a device with the same ‘NVIDIA JMJWOA' codename (also via VideoCardz). This suggests that the N1X is already being tested on Windows and is using a future driver, specifically version 590.22. Considering Nvidia's public drivers are currently in the 577 series, it seems this is a development branch for upcoming hardware.
While the benchmark scores themselves are low, this isn't the key takeaway. The test log shows the GPU's utilisation peaked at just 63% and its temperature remained below 59°C, both signs of an early engineering sample running with power or clock speed restrictions. The purpose of these tests isn't to test performance but to validate the hardware and software stack.
These leaks strongly suggest that Nvidia's OEM partners are now actively testing N1X silicon for upcoming products. While a launch doesn't appear to be imminent, with CES 2026 being the earliest likely venue for a reveal, it's clear that development of Nvidia's high-performance consumer SoC is progressing.
