Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 850 chipset was recently announced to be dedicated for ARM-powered laptops that use the Windows 10 OS. The chip manufacturer is now looking forward to work on its next big thing for notebooks running Microsoft’s operating system; the Snapdragon 1000 and in doing so, it will be competing against Intel’s processors. It would be an ARM-based silicon with a lot more power as compared to the other SoCs. At this stage, complete info on the chip is unknown, but we will still let you in on all the details that we know right now.
The power loss for the Snapdragon 1000 is rumored to be much higher than other SoCs. It may achieve a loss of about 12 watts in various devices, bringing it closer to Intel’s U-series 15W TDP territory. In fact, the maximum power dissipation for Snapdragon 850 can go up to 6.5 watts, and it can be compared with Intel’s Y-series of chips. With double the TDP, new performance values are also expected from the upcoming silicon.
