According to VideoCardz, Qualcomm has specially customized a high-end processor product for PC – Snapdragon X Elite. This processor is also the first product to use Oryon customized core, aiming to compete with Apple’s M series processors. Down.
Judging from the exposed specifications, the CPU and GPU of this processor can bring about twice the performance of the x86 architecture. We compared it and suspected that it might be the 96EU Intel Raptor Lake processor (28W, 2.3TFLOPS), but the GPU of this processor can support 4.6TFLOPS.
Snapdragon X Elite SoC for PCs
▫️ CPU: 12 Oryon high-performance cores
▫️ MEM: LPDDR5X 136GB/s
▫️ GPU: Adreno 4.6 FLOPS, triple 4K support
▫️ NPU: Hexagon 45 TOPS
▫️ NET: 5G/Wi-Fi7
▫️ Integrated Always Sensing ISP
▫️ Claim: up to 2x faster CPU&GPU vs. x86 arch

According to previous news, Qualcomm has now developed three “Snapdragon 8cx Gen 4” processors, which are estimated to be currently named “Snapdragon X”, and the highest-end model will use a 12-core CPU, which is the one that VideoCardz broke today .
This processor uses 12 high-performance cores, but the high-performance cores are not mentioned, but previous reports stated that this processor is composed of eight performance cores and four performance cores, which is strange. In addition, this processor not only supports LPDDR5X RAM, but also supports 136GB/s bandwidth.

The NPU (Neural Processing Unit) has a computing power of 45TOPS, and the yet-to-be-named Adreno GPU will bring a computing power of 4.6TFLOPS, and can also support 4K three-screen display at the same time. In other words, this is very likely to be Supports Thunderbolt 4 connection.
In addition, Snapdragon X Elite can also have a 5G modem, which is exactly the feature that Apple’s M series Mac does not have. However, VideoCardz did not say whether 5G is integrated or separately external.
In addition, VideoCardz also said that the device also supports 13 billion parameters and 30 Token/s 7B LLM, which helps with generative artificial intelligence.
On October 25, Qualcomm will hold the Snapdragon Summit and announce the complete appearance of this product. We will also bring you more reports at that time, so stay tuned.
