Test: RTX Spark runs 5 of 9 anti-cheats, but Valorant and Call of Duty fail

Nvidia promised every game would run on RTX Spark laptops, but XDA's testing found only five of nine popular anti-cheat systems work. Valorant refused to install the Vanguard driver, Call of Duty: Warzone crashed on launch, and Battlefield 6 and Delta Force demanded an x86 CPU. Developers have pledged Arm64 support by 2027.
