This is an ARM-based CPU+GPU design sharing a single memory pool, meaning the GPU can access nearly the full 128GB without the VRAM bottleneck typical of discrete cards. Why: 128GB of unified memory on a laptop/desktop means you could run roughly 70B-parameter models locally without offloading—something that currently requires multi-GPU rigs or cloud rentals. If you're budgeting for an AI development workstation in the next 6-12 months, wait for pricing and benchmarks before committing to a multi-RTX 5090 build, as this could change the cost math significantly. hardware local-llm nvidia arm unified-memory
