TL;DR
  • Perplexity’s Portable Computer can now run on Windows PCs with RTX GPUs.
  • It runs AI tasks locally, keeping sensitive files secure and saving token costs.
  • Portable Computer requires an RTX GPU with at least 24GB of VRAM.

Perplexity has been rolling out feature after feature this year. After the agentic “Personal Computer,” the company launched a new Portable Computer late last month for NVIDIA DGX Spark systems. Now, Perplexity and NVIDIA are finally making Portable Computer accessible to even more people.

NVIDIA announced today that Perplexity’s Portable Computer now works on Windows machines with compatible NVIDIA RTX GPUs. This means users no longer need a $5,000 NVIDIA DGX Spark setup to run Portable Computer. It also finally opens up access beyond DGX Spark and Linux-based systems.
