it's fine lol, I could sense the excitement 😁. am excited too... I still remember the times when 8MB "L3" was a feature only viable in multi socket server CPUs

I'm fucking happy about Cortex-X1🥳🥳🥳

No worries we are all human, and I'm not a modern Apple fan, but it does make me wonder if they will use the Cortex-X1 in things like the Macbook Air, and maybe even their entry level iMac computers, the same as many Chrome OS devices have done in their combo of ARM/X86 machines.

Apple doesn't use Arm's Cortex CPU designs, it uses it own CPU designs. The question is will Qualcomm and Microsoft build a laptop processor using the X1 for an upgrade of the Surface Pro X.

@@GaryExplains i think previously they did!

Much thanks

🤣🤣🙌🏻

i'm sorry to disappoint you but in 4 years, raspberry pi 4 is probably going to launch with a73 with 4 micro hdmi and 32 gb of ram instead of better cpu and gpu. Just look at how things went from raspberry 2 and 3 to raspberry 4

@@ragilmalik damn, I was expecting dual NICs. Guess I was wrong

@@ragilmalik even Tesla self-drive computer hardware V3 was 2018 and that is cortex A72 @14nm and it dose have 12 of them @ 2.2ghz. not 4 @1.5ghz

@@var67 yes, the same way it skipped the A57. I think the GPU needs an upgrade before the CPU. Either way a 8gb quad core 64bit Computer for under $100 is quite impressive , let's hope the 64bit software comes to help us make good use of it.

Snapdragon 875 Hold my 🍺! they are in secret relationship with Nvidia about making custom GPU more than 5 years...

Leaks say 875 is coming with Adreno 660. The same Adreno 6xx design they have been using for 3 years. Disappointing from Qualcomm

@@dreadlord2704san Indeed, but without decent competition Qualcomm really don't have to make any significant changes or improvements. Here's hoping Samsung are working hard behind the scenes to change that, then we'll really see some incredible SOCs in the next few years.

@@nexgenbong3146 lol stop lying the adreno was at first a collaboration between amd and qualcomm later qualcom bought it

@@priyaarun2837 they gonna ditch Adreno and shift to new custom design

Yeah what if they did this, What if Qualcomm used 3 cortex A78 cores and 1 cortex X1 prime core that's clocked at a higher speed like they've don't with their CPU with normal arm cores? Would be a beast!!

Remember unless things have changed since SoftBank. as far as arm's bottom line goes, the same royalty is paid for each core sold regardless of licence type. Apple have an architectural licence , qualcom's build on cortex or Samsung's direct cortex A72 licence . If you manufacture a 64bit V8 core you pay a given number of pence /cents per core shipped.

I wonder why wont they just use octa core A78/A77 (highperf cores only) and ditch the A55. 2 cores in the ultra freq, 2 in the high freq, and 4 in the medium freq hertz. Put big battery. Put an elaborate cooling system and 6000mAh would suffice

I see it also as a push for proper ARM desktop. Wouldnt mind a Octa-x1...

Or maybe, as Johannes Näsman said, it'll be useful for ARM desktops? Now that Apple has announced their transition to ARM-based Apple silicon, they will have to replace all Intel processors currently found on the iMac, the iMac Pro, the Mac mini and the Mac Pro… And even the processors found on the top-of-the-line small (13/14-inch) MacBook Pro and on the larger model (which should probably stay at 16'', as it was redesigned so recently) will be closer to desktop-class than those currently found on the iPad Pro models and the DTK, and likely to appear on future MacBook Airs and low-end MacBook Pros, so… yeah, some customization and optimization for performance over raw battery life and thinness is definitely in order.

Glad it was helpful!

Lol

I could see many mid range Chromebooks using it, or even Apple on something like the Macbook Air.

Yes I hope ARM add SMT to their CPUs

SMT isn't power efficient and full of security holes.

@@GaryExplains Can you make video why SMT is not secure ?

King Wiwuz IV what about mediatek dimesion, kirin, exynos?

I take it , by saying "it just works" , you mean it turns on and off ok and makes phone calls... Because i wouldn't do much more than that on it... I have a sd 636 A73 cores and it feels dog slow in web browsing. It's not that the chips are bad , but everything running on the phone becomes heavier... Bigger websites with tons of data and tracking , yada yada.

@@arditm2178 the Moto G5 I am writing this on is 4 years old and has 4 x A53s and it is really quite zippy , Ok I am not a gamer and if I was running games on it I would be complaining how SLOW it was, but for web, UKposts, Facebook, WhatsApp , Skype video calling , no problem.

Mediatek Helio G35 launched in Q3 2020 with Cortex A53 🤣🤣🤣 Some companies just can't let it go

Lol x1 is a monument here

🤣 I get your point, but actually Arm has often released slower designs. First of all, the A53 and A55 are always slower (by design) than the big cores. Also do you remember when Arm released the A35 after it had released the A53?

@@GaryExplains Haha :P True, true ;P

*Of course Two words, not one, and only one "F."

The A55 was less power efficient than the A53 IIRC.

@@briansilverton2917 and the A35 is probable more energy efficient than the A53, but not dynamIQ compatible

Yeah beast performance

Just checked Exynos 2100 based S21 Ultra settings via CPU-Z app. Same configuration. It's a beast alright! :)

A64FX... thats what im looking at. 2tb bandwidth? .. thats an AMD IO die wet dream.

a "Snapdragon" bit it 😂

Would be nice if you can compare the cortex x1 to the snapdragon 888 !

@@Jinoshkp I don't think that's possible. ARM designs the Cortex cores, and these other chip makers licence those designs and label them differently. The SD888 has one powerful Cortex-X1, and three Cortex A78 for the high performance cores. And four Cortex A55 efficiency cores. The question would then be: "It would be nice to compare an all-Cortex-X1 Snapdragon 888 version to an all-Cortex A78 Snapdragon 888" Predictably the X1 version would defeat the A78, but have poorer battery life

@@MkurugenziMwenyekiti okay. I was looking to see if they built to spec or modified it in anyway.

@@Jinoshkp The last instance I know of that Qualcomm built a CPU core as per ARM spec resulted in not-so-great products and experiences. The Snapdragon 810 that debuted in 2015 phones suffered from severe heating and frequent throttling that was so bad that older Snapdragon 801 and 805 phones often outperformed in under sustained loads. The reason given for that was Qualcomm needed a response to Apple's first to arrive 64 bit ARM chips, and their R&D hadn't brought forth a chip yet. So they adopted ARM's specs to avoid arriving late in the game. I doubt Qualcomm would make the same mistake twice.

Sd also use X1 cpu but diff gpu :))

AMD licenced the RDNA2 architecture to Samsung for them to use in their SoCs

The race to more efficient low power cores ain't as hot as the high performance one.

The cortex A35 is a very low energy 64bit V8 core that works with the cortex 57/72/73 BUT I do not think it is dynamIQ compatible , so dose not work with cortex A75 and up.

Mario Ray Mahardhika you are right but apple small cores just humiliate a55 its a much bigger core but not at a lower efficiency

@lasest2 so what? Their cores arw much better than a55 cores :/

@lasest2 You're the idiot. Yes, Apple is licensing ARMv8 but they're using their own design not one from ARM like the A55.

I expect they took steps to prevent all leakage from one thread to another. Since they were going for performance, chances are they added more hardware so that the hardware sharing and timing based attacks would not be able to work.

different architecture. those are CISC multi core attacks. sure, arm may be way open to others we have no heard of.. but different strokes for different folks..

@@mrrolandlawrence no, ARM cores are affected as well ...

every desktop and mobile motherboard has pcie lanes. Where do you think your connectivity modules are connected to ? thunderbolts also utilises pcie lanes.

It's a long way off from competing with arm.

I have four videos, in a series, about RISC-V on this channel. Did you get a chance to watch them?

RISC-V: I am future proof latest desiged without any risks instructions set. Risk-V: Haha RISK goooo ooooof

I guess Geekbench is the closest thing to that.

Yes, they need a core that dose for the A55 (dynamIQ ) what the A35 did for the A53

Yea yea A56 or something...weird thing theyve used the name "A57" years ago as big cores

Won't change for a few more years. The difference between a53 and a55 was very marginal. The most difference comes from the new process. And these CPUs do get some "patches" new versions occasionally. Edit: researched a bit and the CPUs of 2022 will get a new low core alongside the new big core with arm v9

Not at the moment, no. Windows on Arm is very much a Qualcomm + Microsoft thing. If it succeeds then sure, others will want to join the party.

Will the X1 is a A78 but advanced . And a77 was succeded by a78 .

Since the Snapdragon 780 uses those two core types, then what is your question?

@@GaryExplains its ok now i used diff app it shows sd 778g not cortex anymore in cpu z only shows cortex

I guess you should watch my review of the Surface Pro X.

It is an Android Authority polo shirt, not an Android one.

Or atleast for laptop 😁

Hurm..yeah kinda ok for Android tablets..surely will make Apple iPad run of its money though..but the power consumption tho..i think going for 10 cores might be a better idea..2*X1, 4*A78 and 4*A55..

@Z3U5, Apple doesn't release CPUs based on Arm's Cortex designs.

because Apple is yet to announce their next gen CPU which will probably use the 5nm node.

Yeah, @TheFighter, The problem here is that Apple’s chips will also get better. By the time we see the X1 & A78 in actual products, Apple will also have released at least the A14 and A14X processors, and maybe even the A15, depending on how long it actually takes for CPU’s based on the Cortex A78 and X1 cores to reach the hands of consumers. Those will all be on 5nm as well. Apple has been a step ahead of everybody in the ARM core design area pretty much since the days of the A8 and A8X, and they have been extending that gap, not the other way around. @Z3U5 - Gary Explains is correct. Apple’s ARM license is an Architectural license. They currently design their SoC’s using their own custom CPU and GPU core designs with the ARM architecture, not using the Cortex core designs at all. I think the last time Apple used a Cortex core design in their SoC was the A5.

@@dangrabko Sure, but i dont like current Apple strategy with A13, good performance only over a short period of time with very high power consumption and high temperature. I wouldn't be surprised if the x1 is more power efficient than A14 and has better performance over a longer period of time.

That is what the A78 cores are for.

Same

The Apple processor is not a arm desigs

Apparently Apple is coming with an 8mb L2 cache with the A14

@@bogdangonciu Armv8 is that is not from arm ???

@@mazia0558 Armv8 is not a CPU design like Cortex-AXX, but an instruction set. Both, Cortex from ARM and Axx from Apple processors have same Armv8 instruction set, but different hardware architecture.

Not even close, notice that 20% increase is also included the jump from 2.6GHz to 3GHz, Apple gonna jump even higher. Even A77 vs A76 is 20% ipc improvement

Smartphones are already stronger than the ps3 .

Arm is not owned by Apple and there is no link between the A78/X1 and the A14.

@@GaryExplains thanks but what is the company that Apple purchased to do its A series chips

Apple didn't purchase anything, it designs the chips itself, like it says it does. Apple has a license with Arm which allows it to design, make, and sell its own Arm compatibility CPUs.

Ah! Dang... I just noticed that... Sorry, obviously I meant 8MB... 🤦‍♂️

@Z3U5 you wouldn't even need ram everything runs off the l3 cache

@gary explains But I wanted 8GB 🥺😫

The CPU/SoC comes on a SODIMM stick :P

@Z3U5 imagine the size of the SOC XD lol 8gb of l3 even on 7 NM is insane 😱 But of course he made a typo so it's only 8mb Wich is a really good step forward.

It was asked.

No.

Faster than which x86 CPU? There are literally thousands.

@@GaryExplains is it faster than core i 9900k

The i9-9900K has a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 95W and runs from the main electricity with huge fans and cooling. The Cortex-A78 and X1 run from a battery in a smartphone with no cooling and a TDP of 5W. They are completely different things, of course the Cortex cores aren't faster, but they are way more efficient.
