Qualcomm working on 8 core 64bit SoC Snapdragon 810

[Qwertious]

I don't know anyone who would need 8 cores on a mobile device its like having dual cpus on a laptop

not using the samsing turbon 3000 big little configuration so its 8 full cores

what am i even typing?

FINALLY!. Yes let's see when that chip comes it, how it stacks with the A7.

[Qwertious]

Maybe for Ubuntu Edge kind of concept.

that is still a thing? haha i totally forgot about that!

I believe that if the mobile devs take advantage of OpenGL, the Tegra K1 would blow Qualcomm out of the water.

Don't the Tegra chips get really poor battery life?

They also don't have integrated LTE radios.

u wot m8

moar = better.

so like if you have an extra nipple breast feeding is easier because its spread out against 3?

there you go. now someone is thinking! 

[mgsstar]

Its great that they are releasing that powerful cpus but hope the heat output will be acceptable when on load.

i will be more worried of the battery life....also when it comes out and if it used in a phone with full hd or more than that resolution, u will be having a kick-ass phone which u cant see....

 

LoL...

They said the same thing for the past 3 generations. Nvidia is too slow to market and Qualcomm ends up destroying. Can't remember a single generation when nvidia was in the lead

so..., when can we mine bitcoins on our phones?

That what what i was thinking ahhaha but then if we do have like a microsoft surface pro ect like tablet that runs windows then this SoC does have use just like the Ubuntu Edge concept ;P

Android already uses it (or to be more precise it uses OpenGL ES). It's used very often in apps.

If you got 3 or more babies babies, and/or some of them has more than one mouth then yes that is a good analogy.

We already have "full HD" phones, and yes higher resolution phones are on their way. I don't really understand what you mean by "which u cant see" though.

 

 

I am really excited. I am not too worried about thermals or battery life since it will have better performance:watt (and also faster at going back to idle) and it will also be built using 20nm transistors instead of 28. So if you do the exact same task on a quad core Snapdragon 800 SoC, and this rumored octa-core Snapdragon 810 SoC, then the SoC get LONGER battery life.

If I was female with a baby with more than one mouth, I ain't letting that lil monster be sucking ma titties, but damn multi threaded babies, das the future rie dere

[DudeWazap]

I want 12 cores.

[<boss2939>]

I want 12 cores.

I agree.
