ProArt GR1X brings local AI to creative work

The ProArt GR1X is an agentic AI mini PC designed to run creative applications and generative AI tools locally. ASUS says the system can support workflows spanning Adobe Creative Suite and tools such as ComfyUI, while keeping client footage and project files on the user's own machine.

The mini PC uses NVIDIA RTX Spark, with a 6,144-core NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU and up to 128GB of unified memory. ASUS says the platform supports the NVIDIA Stack, including CUDA, TensorRT, NVFP4, RTX Ray Tracing, DLSS and Optix. The company also highlights the ability to run AI agents alongside large creative projects without per-token or per-generation fees.

At Adobe MAX, ASUS is pairing the GR1X with the ProArt Display OLED PA27UCDV, a 4K 120Hz QD-OLED monitor with dual Thunderbolt 4 ports and up to 140W Power Delivery. The demonstrations include local AI inference, content generation, AI-assisted video editing and workflows extending from concept development to final delivery. ASUS says the ProArt GR1X will be available in the United States on November 18, 2026.

P16 and P14 combine mobile hardware with local agents

ASUS is also demonstrating the ProArt P16 and P14 creator laptops, powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark. The systems combine up to 6,144 NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU cores, a 20-core NVIDIA Grace CPU and up to 128GB of unified memory in a portable design.

According to ASUS, the ProArt P16 is 12.9mm thin and weighs 1.77kg, making it the thinnest ProArt laptop. It has a 99.9Wh battery. The P14 weighs 1.48kg, measures 13.9mm thick and has a 90Wh battery. Both are intended for demanding workloads such as large-model inference and multitasking.

The laptops feature ASUS Lumina Pro OLED displays. Configurations include up to a 4K Tandem OLED panel with 1,600 nits HDR peak brightness, Delta E<1 color accuracy, 120Hz variable refresh rate and an anti-reflection coating. ASUS will demonstrate Hermes integration with Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop, allowing local AI agents to support video editing, content creation and photo enhancement.

Workstations, displays and HDR workflows complete the showcase

For professional VFX and production, ASUS is showing ExpertCenter Pro ET900A X9 and ExpertCenter E500A workstations with ProArt OLED displays. The demonstrations use Blender and Unreal Engine projects to highlight real-time rendering, visualization, advanced VFX, professional video production and color-critical review.

The featured displays include 4K HDR QD-OLED models with up to 1000-nit brightness, refresh rates of up to 240Hz, 99% DCI-P3 coverage and Delta E<1 color accuracy. ASUS says the displays support multiple HDR formats, including Dolby Vision.

Other demonstrations cover Adobe Photoshop Generative Fill, AI-assisted image enhancement, content-aware retouching and generative AI editing. ASUS ProArt is also featured in a session led by Adobe's Jason Druss on HDR workflows in Adobe Premiere, held at the Creative Park Theater on November 10.

For users, the announcement points to a broadening range of ProArt systems that combine creative hardware, professional displays and locally run AI tools. ASUS is presenting these capabilities at booth #1100 during Adobe MAX 2026, which runs from November 10 to November 12 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
