Snapdragon 800 GPU to bridge the gap between PC and Mobile

NeutronGTX

According to an article on Anandtech the Snapdragon 800 has seriously managed to close the gap between itself and older generation PCs. I personally think this is awesome, imagine if your mobile was as powerful as your few years old mid-range PC.

Oh, wow. 

Intel shouldn't be worrying about AMD as a competitor.

 

ARM should be their biggest fear, and they should do something about it.

And people are telling me that consoles won't be caught up by mobiles and tablets. They'll be the first major electronic device to get the full frontal blow of these mobiles and tablets when they finally equal and surpass them.

It doesn't matter, high end smartphones wobt ever come close to high end pcs because you simply have a lot more room for components. This should be a concern not for us pc gamers but for consoles because they only upgrade once every 6-7 years while phones get upgraded every year.

They already are worrying and they are already doing something about it - Atom based phones.

Cool.

 

I mean, for the user, performance is all visual anyway.  Today's iOS/WindowsPhone handset with butter smooth animations will feel faster than your 5 year old XP machine regardless of the actual performance delta.  It's only when you start running real productivity applications that you start to see real performance, which you can't do much of on mobile anyway.
