That was always pure hopium and their target had a ton of leeway anyway.That would be worse than the original Nuvia was projected to be
It is what it is, QC's been sampling 8cx g4 for some time now.I'm pretty skeptical of that
Well the Nuvia Phoenix core is labeled with a thick blue bar on their original chart, which indicates that it has a range of possible performance/power characteristics in their projection.I'm pretty skeptical of that. That would be worse than the original Nuvia was projected to be. Though I guess if anyone could take their work and screw it up, it would be Qualcomm!
Well, it was long rumoured the team is s basically no more and QC at fault 'cos an idiot had an ego the size of Jensen.I'm pretty skeptical of that. That would be worse than the original Nuvia was projected to be. Though I guess if anyone could take their work and screw it up, it would be Qualcomm!
It's a whole club now.who is the other big spam core then , Tenstorrent ?
how about a rephrase , who else is doing it well ?It's a whole club now.
Ventana, AMD, Intel, Apple, Tenstorrent, Qualcomm, ARM.
Did I forget someone?
They don't do custom cores.Maybe Mediatek?
Apple is suck is still doing well.how about a rephrase , who else is doing it well ?
Will there be updated chipsets for Z5?
No.
PROM21 will have a long life yes.
Never heard of this.That's interesting. I heard a long time ago that there was a PCIe 5.0 chipset project running in parallel with PROM21 by a different vendor, but that was delayed so much that the first gen of boards shipped only with PROM21. I would have thought that if that chip got delivered, it would ship as the x700 series. Do you know what's up with that? As in, was the rumor wrong, did they cancel the whole project, or what?
I hate that name coz of how much my Mediayuk SoC freezes in my daily use phone. The only thing worse I've experienced is RockbottomChip. Never experienced Unisoc.it was mediatek who were involved but their plans never went through.
They don't do custom cores.
Yea because Apple is pretty good at core design and their freq targets are low.Apple P cores are crazy small compared to Intels and a bit smaller than AMD Zen4.
Late next year.Qualcomm custom cores coming late this year.
Can't get awful without throwing "cope" in the name of your cores.And copenix looks awful either way.
It is what it is, ex-Firestorm team went elsewhere and made what looks like a worse Firestorm.Can't get awful without throwing "cope" in the name of your cores.
while I wouldn't call them one hit wonders, good design means it can be stretched out and integration of better ip in future. a better way to say this would be teams need a long good track record of firsts and advancements.It is what it is, ex-Firestorm team went elsewhere and made what looks like a worse Firestorm.
Expectations were high and the final product is ehhhh.
Was a very consistent team at Apple.while I wouldn't call them one hit wonders

A solid chunk of the team left to Nuvia, kek.I guess the lead and a couple higher ups jumping ship
Any idea on if Cortex X5 is likely to beat it?Was a very consistent team at Apple.
Just that Phoenix is not it.
Well X4 beats it so...Any idea on if Cortex X5 is likely to beat it?
From what I remember Nuvia's OG focus was an ARM64 server core so it doesn't seem a stretch that design specs were altered negatively to favor QC's WARMtop/smartphone focus instead.Just that they've underdelivered a fair bit.
