Qualcomm announced in March last year 1.4 billion U.S. dollars to buy CPU design company Nuvia, and is expected to be held in Hawaii on October 24-26 this year Snapdragon Summit, the launch of a self-research processor called “Oryon”, the estimated name of the product for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 4, the product is expected to be the first time in the world. The estimated product name is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 4.
According to foreign technology media SemiAccurate report, in terms of performance, self-developed processor “Oryon” is better than Apple’s M2, but not as good as the M3 chip.
Qualcomm Oryon chip is mainly oriented to the notebook, although the performance is basically up to expectations, but there are challenges in the tuning of Nuvia core and Qualcomm uncore (is essential to the performance of the processor to play and maintain the role of the components), resulting in high power consumption, and power management has a lot of room for improvement.
The main reason for the high power consumption of the Qualcomm Oryon chip is that it uses a server core rather than a consumer core, and in terms of power management, there is a big gap compared to the Apple Monaco, so it is difficult to compete with Apple in the high-end notebook market.
It was previously reported, that Qualcomm Oryon chip will have 3 versions, including the high-end version has 12 cores, including 8 performance cores and 4 energy-efficient cores.
