Quote from: Sinocelt on December 19, 2023, 04:14:47Qualcomm added a lot of cores to beat the M3 in multicore, at the cost of a much higher power draw.

There's like a 5% performance difference between the 80w config and 23w variant, so not too big of a difference. At least that's what they claim / have showed so far.

Quote from: A on December 19, 2023, 08:31:27As Meteor Lake is DOA, Qualcomm vs Apple will be the real fight of the next several years.

I remain skeptical, as MS doesn't seem too keen making Windows on Arm effort a success. Why are they forcing all the h/w vendors to increase TOP's for AI on win 12 when clearly nobody has an NPU strong enough for it yet, besides for spying? This company seems directionless and clueless.

Qualcomm have their hands full with mobile CPUs though, they might not be too active in desktop market. Plus Intel will of course play their dirty games and drive laptop producers away, as AMD is a "convenient" competitor for them with low production volumes and only shilled by a small fanbase. Qualcomm not so much convenient, as it's aiming at Windows market and their production volumes can be pumped up sky high.

Only in native arm benchmark I suppose? Cool, but don't care. I'm a windows user. What about x86 soft support, will there be hardware emulation of it or software? If software emulation, how much impact will emulation take? Will it beat M3 in x86 programs performance? I doubt..

Qualcomm's Snapdragon Elite X might still be several months from launching, but it is continuing to make waves. Qualcomm claims that not only does the chip beat out Apple's now superseded M2 Max, but it also beats out its latest M3 chip as well.
