At least should be meaningfully faster and lower power than anything Intel or AMD have in the same price bracket.I estimate the iGPU will eat only about 10W. Very low power consumption, but the performance is also very low, so nothing to write home about.
It is indeed the return of sd810.9.5W single thread power consumption!!!

First Benchmarks of Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Plus "X1P-42-100" 8-Core CPU Leak Out, Miserably Low GPU Performance
First benchmarks of Qualcomm's Snapdragon X 8-Core CPU have been leaked, giving us a taste of entry-level Oryon & Adreno chips in Windows.wccftech.com
Saw that already, so Qualcomms Budget Option is basically CPU Performance that was available for 2 Years now with Phoenix and an atrocious GPU. This won't help their market share at all.Seems like Wccftech managed to get some early benchmarks of the upcoming Snapdragon X1P-42-100 featured in the Asus Proart PZ13;
Well, it probably didn't cost much to develop this cut down part. And it could be a good volume market because it should be quiet and last long. Many people will not suffer too much from a meager GPU.Saw that already, so Qualcomms Budget Option is basically CPU Performance that was available for 2 Years now with Phoenix and an atrocious GPU.

Yes. But worse than an M1 from 2020, which also had those other properties and has been available for ~$650 for months now.Should run Minecraft, right?
It looks like a high score for this part and laptop. A quick glance at other results, I'd say it averages at about 2200 to 2300 ST in GB6 running Windows.Versus my $600 7840U laptop from 2023:

It's probably about equal if both were in Linux but I'm not about to install Windows again. And SDXP should have better battery life and less fan noise. Is Linux working out of the box on SDX yet?
It's a completely average score when not hobbled by Windows actually.It looks like an unusually high score for this part and laptop. A quick glance at other results, I'd say it averages at about 2200 to 2300 ST in GB6.
WCCTech shows X1P-42 is above Core Ultra 9 185H. I guess if they keep the battery life, and I have no reason to believe otherwise, it might be competitive for those wanting thin and light laptops but not too stingy on their pockets.
Of course, why would somebody choose it over an M1 Macbook Air is still beyond, but let's not act like it does not happen every day. To each their own!
I don't know if Qualcomm can (or should) count on that. People willing to suffer emulation penalties and incompatibilities are probably mainly using web apps. Then... after all, why not a Mac?Macs are not a thing everywhere, and thus not an alternative.

Yeah, you are right. I forgot to say it averages at that score for Windows, which makes for a fairer comparison.It's a completely average score when not hobbled by Windows actually.
That's my laptop running completely stock at 28W PPT.
Because when you struggle with a Mac as a primarily habitual Windows user, you really STRUGGLE a lot!why not a Mac?
Hasn't it been proven enough that Windows must die?WINDOZE
It's only Win11 that needs to die.Hasn't it been proven enough that Windows must die?
I don't like macOS, but as a long time UNIX user it's much less alien to me than Windows. It's a question of habits and being able to change them (beyond available software, but that's another discussion).Because when you struggle with a Mac as a primarily habitual Windows user, you really STRUGGLE a lot!
It's not so bad. On a given day I switch between Linux (work), Mac OS (home) and Windows (to play a game) and after doing this for 9 years I can no longer remember the teething pains. At some point it became automatic like code-switching.Because when you struggle with a Mac as a primarily habitual Windows user, you really STRUGGLE a lot!
To the point of cursing so much that for the sake of your sanity, you switch back to Windows.

$1100. That's bullshit from ASUS.
I think it's fine given the price bracket is <$700. But I definitely don't understand why keep a 40 TOPs NPU with single-channel memory.
They save a lot in platform costs but it's definitely a puzzling decision.They saved what? $5 max by going single channel?
