    Hi, thanks this is a very interesting video, but i would like to clarify a bit the actual x86 competition, the 14900HX is in the same class as the 7945HX (they can draw +100w), so they're not comparable to a M3 or X Elite, the more accurate comparaison would be the freshly released Core Ultra 185H which scores about ~2500 points ST and ~13500 points MT.
    Anyways we'll need to wait for more tests for the X Elite, specifically on battery life, as the performance is in line with the current generation.

    • @nathanacreman632
      @nathanacreman632 Před 2 měsíci

      I disagree, I think it's better to look at x86 at it's best even though it munches super hard for power, because then we will truly know what the tradeoff for power is. I'd rather know what I'm sacrificing in order to get better battery life. What I really want to know is assuming this arm chip has a GPU processor, what is it like? does it get smoked by Apples M series GPU cores? can it even compare to a low end power hungry AMD or NVIDIA card?

Also Snapdragon is ARM, not everything runs on ARM, so we gotta see how it ends up running on emulated software.

Because they use desktop silicon they also have worse iGPUs (13980HX for example has the 770 desktop graphics, just slightly better; this might change next gen because of Arc graphics or maybe not). Because these are desktop chips they perform the best, but also draw the most power. Which is why the laptops with these are always so big and have discreet GPUs on the 4080/4090 level.

      Be aware that Nuvia, author of this chip initially designed it for servers (hence the lack of efficiency cores at all).

      They just picked a clever time to show you their firdt chip (right before M3 announcement), but reverse this, when the first SD X Elite machines are avaliable on the market, that time Apple also can make a same hype video, with M4, and also say the same, you will can buy this machines about 6 months later. So in this environment the M2 competitor chip is not that great, already beated by miles by the M3 (about the same multi score performance with only 4 power cores, and 4 efficiency cores, even if you want to state it's an 8 core chip, that is still way less like the 12 power cores in the SD X Elite, and the power cores difference actually 3x), but Apple already half way to release the M4 when they will be avaliable in any device (so just like on the phone market, they are a few years behind in performance, even if you compare the SD8G3 with the A17, Apple chip still beat it, but remember that, if that S24U still called to Note 24, that device should release with the A18 (iPhone 16) about 6 months later, and you are not comparing with the already one year old A17 (iPhone 15) if they still has balls to release with the iPhone..

    Does Linux do unified memory like MacOS? Also the Snapdragon elite X doesn't have comparable memory bandwidth. I don't think you can run mixtral 8x7b on a 96GB Snapdragon elite X at least at similar speeds.

    • @moozoowizard
      @moozoowizard Před 3 měsíci

      @user-ej9nl1ng9d I think M3 unified memory is different from PC UMA. Gpt-4 says the GPU can not access system memory or at least it's a hard partition where the GPU gets a dedicated part of ram.
      Maybe amd hUMA is similar?
      Short version if a Snapdragon elite X has 96GB system Ram can the igpu access all/most of it to run 70b models. Not a max of 16GB (32GB?} max like the 8700G. Or half system memory like windows shared memory. I believe in the M3 the igpu can access at least 75% of the system ram.

    RISC-V looks like it will be even better for custom chips, so I expect that the competition will help keep costs down. This is what the industry needed, x86 had sit on similar performance for a few generations with only small improvements. This is how it was from the inception of desktop computing until the early 2000s when chip manufacturers started dropping development of new chips and we were stuck with Intel and AMD as the only option in computers.

    • @FlorinArjocu

      RISC-V is many years behind ARM. There is no real high performance alternative, but even in low powered chips, the performance / watt is quite better in ARM.

    • @jfftck
      @jfftck Před 3 měsíci

      @@FlorinArjocu The improvements to RISC-V are impressive, and with it just a reference specification, there’s a chance that a company can make a chip that is just as performant or better. I would love SBCs, like Raspberry Pi, build their own chips using RISC-V - Raspberry already makes their own microprocessors, so it isn’t too far fetched of an idea. Remember that AMD and Intel have swapped places in the performance scores for their respective processors and that was due to trying different designs, the same can happen with RISC-V - AMD was said to be years behind Intel for about a decade and they are now pushing the performance standards forward.
      Just saying that one design is years behind doesn’t mean that it isn’t possible for a change in the market, with RISC-V it has the advantage of being able to quickly iterate and change the design, as right now it is mainly just a bunch of reference chips being made and not much for retail customers.

    I’d like to see your guys’ opinions regarding the licensing side of ARM versus RISC-V, for example as I understand it, the ARM intellectual property has been shuffled around and sold to various parties, while RISC-V might have an advantage (?) of being an open standard. In particular there was some hoopla about a mainland China company possibly owning IP rights to ARM? I wonder how all this plays out in the coming years.

    Good to see some real competition. You did skip one important metric though. Power consumption. Its all very well matching performance, but if this is achieved by doing whatever it takes power wise, at the expense of battery and cooling, then it’s not really competitive. Yet !

    there will only be one comparison left for these chips: efficiency (power draw). if Qualcomm won this, they still need to compete and/or cooperate with software to pursue them making their software (e.g. games) available or compatible with the arm chips, otherwise, the windows on arm machine will be completely useless ._. however, the development process would almost be as difficult as making another copy for Mac, so its actually likely to see new software for Macs from windows.

    There's one big advante of Apple here: they can _force_ change. They introduce a new architecture with all the tools for transition ready at launch, then they give a few years warning when will they pull the plug of the old architecture. So any software developer who wants access to the Mac market have _no choice_ but supporting the new system.
    Windows on the other hand is all about backward compatibility. So even if there are ARM PCs available and Windows for ARM works nicely, nothing forces application developers to support it, especially if x64 systems have similar or better performance for the same or similar price.
