“We are pushing for the return of Exynos to the flagships of the Galaxy series.” Samsung DS VP bluntly confirms the latest rumors

After a flurry of rumors and leaks, we have received official confirmation that Samsung’s new flagship smartphones can indeed get Exynos SoC. This was directly stated by the head of the Samsung DS division Hyekman Kwon (Hyeokman Kwon).

He said these words at a speech on the company’s latest financial report, which turned out to be very bad.

Kwon did not directly name either the new platform or smartphone models, but there are no special options here. That is, the Exynos 2400 may indeed appear in the Galaxy S24 line. True, judging by the wording, the issue has not yet been finally resolved and, as some sources have stated earlier, there is no consensus in Samsung itself regarding this issue.

How successful the Exynos 2400 will be after the year-long hiatus that Samsung has taken is still anyone’s guess, although the first leaks give hope for a good result.

Most games will run on the Snapdragon X Elite SoC. The performance issue is still open

Most games will run on the Snapdragon X Elite SoC

Laptops based on the Qualcomm SoC of the Snapdragon X Elite line should appear on the market this summer. The first tests show that in terms of processor performance, at least in these very tests, the top platform of the line is very good. Now Qualcomm says games will run on the Snapdragon X Elite too.

Most games will run on the Snapdragon X Elite SoC.  The performance issue is still open

More precisely, the company representative said that most games will run on Snapdragon X Elite. Here, of course, we are not talking about GPU performance, about which we still don’t really know anything, but about the technical side. Since we’re talking about the Arm platform, running software built for x86-bit architecture requires certain manipulations. Qualcomm says game developers will have three options to choose from.

First, they can port their games to ARM64 to achieve the best CPU performance and power consumption. Of course, no one will do this for the sake of laptops on Snapdragon X Elite at first.

Second, developers can create a hybrid ARM64EC application where Windows, its libraries, and Qualcomm drivers run natively, but the rest of the application is emulated to achieve near-native performance. This also requires additional actions from developers. But the third option is that developers can do practically nothing, and their games should still work, but using x64 emulation. It is not yet known how much performance will suffer. Let us remember that the problem is that Snapdragon X Elite does not support discrete video cards, that is, in any case, it relies only on its own GPU.

What happens if you run a game with ray tracing only on the processor without using a video card? Tests showed that there will be 1 fps

What happens if you run a game with ray tracing

Modern video cards already do a good job with ray tracing, although a lot depends on its implementation. Now it is possible to run tracing on the CPU.

What happens if you run a game with ray tracing only on the processor without using a video card?  Tests showed that there will be 1 fps

The developer of the Mesa library has implemented support for ray tracing on the processor in Vulkan and tested it in Quake II RTX. Even at 720p resolution, performance was only 1 fps. True, for some reason the authors did not indicate the processor model, which makes the tests not particularly clear, but, on the other hand, it is unlikely that professionals would use any old CPU for such a task.

Be that as it may, if the most powerful modern CPUs with a huge number of cores can already cope with games that are undemanding by modern standards without a GPU at all, they are unlikely to be able to do ray tracing yet.
