Awesome to see Gimp here, this app is amazing and deserve more users.

Nice demo, could you tell me the transistor count of x-elite please? Do you know yet the naming structure, I'd be surprised if the release isn't a gen 2 of what we see in demo

Which laptop models will be use snapdragon x elite?

Can we expect the same performance under docker that targets multiple platforms and hardware? It would be great if there was a QRD laptop that everyone can buy.

Wat a breakthrough good job Qualcomm

The processor of Qualcomm mobile phones is already stronger than any Apple device in simulating NS and Win games. If it is further enhanced and put on laptops, tablets, and handheld game consoles, it will be simply invincible, with ultra-low power consumption and super performance. We look forward to Qualcomm's new generation of high-performance mobile platform.

Have seen the reference laptop running a full Linux desktop, so my hopes for having a good performant, good battery life Linux laptop are really high! All the dev software I require runs flawlessly on arm64 and the rest of the software I use is web based, so being full arm64 is not a drama for me. @Snapdragon could you give us some Linux desktop love in the form of video? ❤🐧

I want a mini pc minisforum small form factor with snapdragon. Will replace my raspberry pi 5 with something more powerful

Utilizing the performance and efficiency of Qualcomm AI Engine on Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3, the Qualcomm AI Engine enables cloud-class models to run on thin and light laptops while other system resources stay responsive, so you stay productive.".

I think it will support linux. it is going to use in servers. So I have high hope for this. Waiting for fedora to support on this cpu.

i want one😍

They will never release the AI software they use, I have a ThinkPad X13s with a Snapdragon 8CX Gen3 processor, when trying to do what they have in the video, the software informs me i cannot access my NPU because it's been locked and I don't have the administrative right to access it. Seems funny when they show off this technology but won't let people use it.

I hope the price will be reasonable 😊

I wonder what GPU was used in the x86 based system? I'm suspecting the comparison here was done using integrated GPUs for both SXE and x86 laptops, and while that's a relatively fair comparison, the other truth is that if you are using a PC based laptop for such work, you probably have a discrete mobile GPU from nVidia or AMD which would likely make the PC perform much, much faster, and that would be a more *useful* real world comparison. I don't know whether the first generation of SXE laptops will or won't have discreet GPUs as an option, but I'm kind of suspecting not.

Kind reminder 🤗. You guys compare a released fully product from last year with a product that is in the laboratory and doesn't have any release date. I bet that Intel might have another product in the laboratory that is better than your version, so, good luck 🤤.

Just don't make it as memory constrained as apple. Please start your chips with atleast 16gb of unified memory all the way upto atleast 96gb.
