After two days of extensive announcements around 5G and premium mobile chipset, Qualcomm unveiled the next big thing for Connected PCs, the new Snapdragon 8CX compute platform. Unlike the previous three chipsets, the Snapdragon 835, the Snapdragon 845 and the Snapdragon 850, the Snapdragon 8CX is designed specifically for the PCs.
The next generation of Always Connected Personal Computers (ACPCs) will be significantly more powerful and at the same time, significantly more efficient. Qualcomm has managed to beat Intel to announce the first ever PC chip based on the 7nm technology. While the primary focus remains the same – always-connected PCs with all-day battery, there is a significant leap in performance. The new Adreno 680 GPU on Snapdragon 8CX is 3.5x times faster than the Snapdragon 850 and at the same time, it’s 60% more efficient as well. We are still not looking at Nvidia/AMD/Intel levels of GPU performance, but that’s a considerable jump.
Qualcomm continues to have the heterogeneous architecture with Kryo 495 CPU which comes with four high-performance cores and four efficiency cores.
