q8peace, 16 Aug 2018but why arm cpu only in soc can they make a cpu that make 9... moreBecause they targeting at mobile computing. Specifically, the common ones. The one that used for daily computing, school usages, office usages, etc. So sans gaming laptop. As for those who still need more power, Intel/AMD is still the way to go.

If only Intel could stop incremental 5% IPC upgrade. While others catching up FAST

So when are the Thanos cores gonna come? And will they cause half of the smartphones in the world to disappear? =P

AnonD-558092, 17 Aug 2018Could be 24 cores. No matter, only power consumption matter... moreI just read Anandtech's article.
The figures are for 1 7300U vs 1 A76.
The problem is that ARM takes unrealistic power consumption figures; the total TDP for the intel is 15 W but it includes pretty much everything on the chip, meanwhile the "5W" is just for ONE A76 core.
And given that intel is currently offering 4 cores in the same envelopment than that 7300U, the power consumption for a 4xA76 cores chip could end being quite similar...
The real advantage of ARM is price, except that OEMs are pricing this machines as their intel counterparts.

Anonymous, 16 Aug 2018Sorry to disagree, but AMD already crushed Intel on desktop... more*nm is just another spec on paper much like megapixels or display resolution. Just because a sensor has more megapixels or display has higher resolution doesn't mean it's better component.
Same with chips, 7nm will not be the same when AMD does it and when Intel does it. Intel's current 10nm is much closer to AMDs upcoming 7nm than it will be to their own 7nm. They are not built the same much like any other product out there.

Kiyasuriin, 16 Aug 2018I am excited toward Deimos and Hercules. These are the core... moreFor youtube,facebook and snapchat?
Ok the cores which i need right now are :
16 cores on 3nm, 4000 ghz each.
4600 with turbo.
Just for the numbers,I will still play angry birds.

However apps need to be multithreaded for that magic to work. But I don't think any recent app isn't. All computers in use are multicore systems

q8peace, 16 Aug 2018but why arm cpu only in soc can they make a cpu that make 9... moreThere is a limit to the effectiveness of increased GHz speed. Beyond a certain point, cycles just get burned without being used for computing.
Thus you can get the TDP as high as you want, that's not the magic that will get ARM to beat full-fledged desktop processors

2 cores vs what, 4 / 8 ?
ARM needs to show IPC to make a proper comparison.
Last time they were still far away:

Intel might be faster yet but at the expense of much higher power draw. And once ARM gets powerful enough the extra performance offered by Intel will be attractive for gamers only.

Kickasser, 16 Aug 2018This kind of quashes the possibility of A77 cores...Deimos is probably the codename for Cortex-A77. Of course the Kirin 980 is not going to have it, in case you were referring to that leak.

Why ARM did not compare it to the 8th series Core i7? Because it was the major leap in the U-Series from Intel. Actually, it was the one which made me buy a new laptop, because it has the performance coupled with low TDP.

but why arm cpu only in soc can they make a cpu that make 95 watt tdp ofcorse it will be powerful and than developers may porting there apps to it and arm threatening intel / why waiting 10 years untill there 5 watts soc become as powerful as i7 desktop k-series ?

Intel is currently on the i5-8250u, which doubles the performance of the last generation. Whiskey Lake is a refinement.
