Startup Olares teases RTX 5090 Mobile AI desktop
Olares has announced Olares One , a compact desktop AI box built around an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile GPU with 24GB of GDDR7 memory and an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor. The system is planned as crowdfunding project in December, with a showcase at CES 2026.
The headline feature is the claimed GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile configuration. Olares lists 24GB GDDR7, a maximum TGP of 175W and up to 1824 AI TOPS for local inference workloads. The company positions Olares One as a personal AI box for image generation, local assistants and cloud style game streaming from a 3.5 liter chassis, with Steam game streaming to other devices mentioned as a use case.

One pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX with 24 cores, boost clocks up to 5.4 GHz and 36 MB cache, plus 96 GB of DDR5 5600 memory in a 2×48 GB configuration. Storage is a single 2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. Connectivity includes one Thunderbolt 5 port, one HDMI 2.1 output, one USB A port, 2.5 GbE, WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4. The entire system is powered by a 330W external (sadly) supply and is listed at 320 × 197 × 55 mm with a weight of 2.15 kg, or 3.1 kg with PSU.
Olares also puts a lot of emphasis on its cooling and noise claims. The company describes a 2.8 mm vapor chamber, a large copper fin stack and dual custom 54 blade fans, citing 23 dB at idle and 38.8 dB with both GPU and CPU at full load, with component temperatures around 46.2°C under those lab conditions.

On the software side, the box runs Olares OS , an in house, open source Linux based platform with its own app market, Kubernetes based backend and one click deployment for AI and self hosted services. The marketing material highlights support for tools such as ComfyUI, Open WebUI and various automation and database stacks, as well as running Windows applications through compatibility layers.
Olares One will be offered through crowdfunding platform pre orders, with an unusual two step deposit model. The company is currently asking for a 50 USD refundable deposit on its site, which is then supposed to be combined with a 2999 USD Kickstarter pledge, followed by 200 USD cashback after the campaign (why they always make this so complicated, I don’t know).
As usual, we suggest our readers to say away from crowdfunding projects, especially from companies that never launch a product, and especially if the said product costs thousands of dollars. Nothing from the product page says anything about independent reviews.
