We’ve been listening to about Qualcomm’s new Oryon cores for some time now – the primary customized high-performance ARM cores developed by the corporate for the reason that unique Kryo. It will likely be featured in chipsets geared toward Home windows units which are code named “Hamoa”. Beforehand, we solely knew of a 12-core design, however new data means that Qualcomm will come out of the gate with a bigger roster.
The next numbers have been seen in inner paperwork by WinFuture: SC8350, SC8350X, SC8370, SC8370XP, together with the SC8380 and SC8380XP. The final two are the unique 12-core variants and can function eight excessive efficiency cores and 4 effectivity cores.
The SC8350 and SC8370 can have 4 and 6 efficiency cores, respectively. This shall be padded out with a set variety of 4 effectivity cores. Apparently Qualcomm will bin the chips in response to clock velocity too, so a few of these might be “plus” variations with the identical variety of cores operating at greater frequencies.
The 2 12-core variants must be marketed below the Snapdragon 8cx Gen 4 branding (once more presumably with a plus in there). The others ought to unfold out into decrease sequence just like the Snapdragon 8c and 7c.
It’s not clear whether or not all these chipsets will launch concurrently or whether or not the paperwork included future releases too. However the brand new Hamoa chips are anticipated to be offered in October, presumably throughout the identical occasion that brings the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The primary Hamoa-powered units are anticipated in early 2024.
