The promise of the Snapdragon X Elite I have compatibility issues with Windows Thanks to the emulation of x86 and x64 on ARM64, and secondly (25), Devin Arthur, who is a member of the Snapdragon Insider program, leaked a video showing a demo laptop equipped with the new processor from Qualcomm rodando Baldur's Gate 3.
O notebook is displayed play sports in 1080p resolution at 30 FPS, reveals the use of the potential of the Adreno GPU integrated into the Snapdragon X Elite. As the power configurations and other parameters of the testing device are not revealed, it is therefore necessary to protect independent testing.
Here's a demo of Baulders Gate 3 running at 1080p hovering around 30FPS, which is perfectly playable! https://t.co/ZieiHtzRlN pic.twitter.com/VvFKbUVK5J

After checking out the laptop configuration information, you must observe that the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS and its integrated Radeon 780M GPU produce speeds of 25 to 40 FPS. Baldur's Gate 3 works with a TDP of 30 W.
I hope Qualcomm's Arm-based chip receives big operational improvements from software. With future fixes and driver improvements, it is possible that the new rival of Intel and AMD processors will have new FPS peaks.
Qualcomm engineer Issam Khalil previously said that we desenvolvedores do not affect any mudança em your games to run on laptops with Windows and Snapdragon X Elite. Onboard emulation should have a slight impact on CPU usage, but did not reduce GPU consumption, second.
The engineer explains that the impact of emulation on the CPU will first appear when the code for the “translation” of x64 for ARM64. After that, passages will have direct access to the cache, and games will work with immediate use of the native experience.

It will also be possible to use Windows' ARM64EC to create a “hybrid” application in which Qualcomm's libraries and drivers run natively on Windows in Arm, but the rest of the application is emulated, between a higher employee.
A better option, in any form, is to port games to run natively on ARM64, so you get the best CPU and GPU resources from the Snapdragon X Elite.
The first laptops equipped with a new platform should arrive to appear in games at the end of the first half of 2024. Some of the devices you can use this hardware include the supports. Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge e Redmi G Pro 2024.
