01 · Who we are
RTXsparks.com is an independent registry and scorecard for NVIDIA RTX Spark hardware. We are not affiliated with NVIDIA, Microsoft, or any OEM. We accept no OEM money. We buy every device we test. NVIDIA, RTX, GeForce, and DGX are trademarks of NVIDIA Corporation.
02 · How we benchmark
Every device runs through the Spark-AI v2026.4 suite: a fixed set of open models at published quantization levels, executed on a clean Windows 11 install with the OEM's latest stable driver. We publish the exact firmware, driver, and Windows build alongside every run.
03 · Community submissions
Anyone can submit a run via the lab portal. Submissions are re-validated by our team on the same firmware/driver pair before they influence a score. Outliers are quarantined for manual review.
04 · Score versioning
Scores carry a version (e.g. v2026.4.1). When we change weights or add benchmarks, the version increments and historical snapshots remain queryable via the API. We never silently re-score.
05 · Corrections
If a vendor firmware update fixes a regression, we re-run the suite within 14 days and publish the new snapshot. Corrections are announced in Lab Notes with a diff against the previous score.
