ASUS plans to bring its ProArt GR1X mini PC to the United States on November 18, offering creators up to 128GB of unified memory for running AI tools alongside their projects. At Adobe MAX, the company is demonstrating the machine and its ProArt P16 and P14 laptops with local AI agents connected to Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop through Hermes.
The Windows-based ProArt GR1X uses NVIDIA RTX Spark and a Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 cores. ASUS says running creative AI workloads locally lets users retain client footage on their computers and generate content without fees charged by token or individual generation. The company has not disclosed a price.

The November 18 US date follows an earlier global preorder schedule that set availability for October 16. Those October preorders covered the ProArt GR1X as well as the ProArt P16 and ProArt P14, with multiple memory options planned and AI performance rated at up to 1 petaflop.
The laptops combine a Grace CPU with 20 cores, a Blackwell RTX GPU offering up to 6,144 cores, and unified memory reaching 128GB. ProArt P16 weighs 1.77kg, measures 12.9mm thick and carries a 99.9Wh battery, while ProArt P14 weighs 1.48kg, measures 13.9mm thick and uses a 90Wh battery. Their ASUS Lumina Pro OLED display options reach 4K Tandem OLED, with HDR brightness peaking at 1,600 nits and variable refresh rates reaching 120Hz.
For its mini PC demonstrations, ASUS is using the ProArt Display OLED PA27UCDV, a QD-OLED screen combining 4K resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate. Its two Thunderbolt 4 connections offer Power Delivery reaching 140W, while the portable PA16USV supplies 4K resolution and 12G-SDI connectivity. ASUS is also showing a mobile production setup that connects four displays to the ProArt GR1X for editing and AI work.
Adobe MAX runs November 10 through 12 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, where ASUS occupies booth #1100. Other demonstrations use ExpertCenter workstations for projects built in Unreal Engine and Blender, plus ASUS NUC 16 Pro and QN10 systems for photo editing. The photo sessions include Photoshop Generative Fill, retouching assisted by AI and color-managed image review.
