New Surface hardware could be unveiled as soon as next week, and it looks like the potential PCs will be much more exciting than the business versions of the Surface Pro 12 and Surface Laptop 8<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Simultaneous X posts from NVIDIA and Microsoft promise “a new era of PC.” The posts spun the rumor mill into gear, creating buzz for Computex and Microsoft Build.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We don’t have any confirmation of what’s on the way. Both NVIDIA and Microsoft used the same phrasing to tease the announcement, and they clearly left in clues for people to figure out.<\/p>\n

So, what would classify as “a new era of PC?” Microsoft’s Pavan Davuluri, who leads Windows and Surface, already ruled out a new operating system version<\/a>. It seems safe to say that the upcoming announcement is not about Windows 12 (which isn’t confirmed to be real anyway).<\/p>\n

The image shared by Davuluri looks like a piece of a curved display.<\/p>\n

Something new is coming for developers. And no, it\u2019s not a new OS version \ud83d\ude05. See you at Build next week! pic.twitter.com\/gfY90ZyjZlMay 29, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n

Microsoft’s Build conference kicks off next week, so we won’t have to wait long to find out what the hints are about. We may not even have to wait until then.<\/p>\n

The X posts from Microsoft and NVIDIA mention “25.0528” and “121.5990” Those number aligns perfectly with the longitude and latitude of the Taipei Music Center, which is where Computex takes place. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang will hold a keynote at the event on June 1.<\/p>\n

The Verge<\/a> speculates that the announcement could be related to NVIDIA’s rumored N1 and N1X chips. VideoCardz<\/a> goes ever further by sharing screenshots of a Dell embargo related to NVIDIA’s N1X.<\/p>\n

Rumors of the N1X chip have swirled for years. A leak in January suggested the processor will be a “20\u2011core Arm + RTX GPU monster,”<\/a> as our Cale Hunt put it.<\/p>\n

If rumors and leaks are accurate, NVIDIA’s N1X would challenge decades of x86 dominance by introducing a powerful, high-end ARM processor to the market. That could certainly usher in a “new era of PC.”<\/p>\n
