Chip designer ARM recently revealed the Cortex-X925 CPU and Immortalis G925 GPU, signaling a notable advancement in mobile performance for high-end smartphones set to launch later this year.
The new Cortex CPU has a huge 36% increase in single-core performance
The Cortex-X925 CPU features an impressive 36% boost in single-core performance along with a 41% enhancement in AI-related tasks. Additionally, it introduces a new generation of Cortex-A microarchitectures designed for "small" cores, which promise improved performance and efficiency.
Immortalis G925 GPU
Living up to its name, the Immortalis G925 GPU offers a 37% increase in graphics performance, a 52% boost in ray tracing capabilities for intricate objects, and a 34% enhancement in AI workloads. Remarkably, this power surge is achieved while consuming 30% less energy.
Future Integration and Launches
ARM is facilitating quicker device rollouts by providing manufacturers with an "optimized layout" for easier integration of these new designs. Although specific brands haven't been confirmed yet, smartphones featuring these cores are anticipated by the end of the year. MediaTek has already announced plans to integrate them into their upcoming Dimensity 9400 chipset, potentially setting a new benchmark in the smartphone industry.
