You aren't helping me to explain by mixing the wrong things together 😅
Cezanne/Rembrandt etc are all SoC codenames (not actually used in branding), Zen3/4/5 are the CPU cores for those SoC's.
I know what they are, and I'm sure you know too, that's why I'm not calling Ryzen 5000/6000 or whatever. You're probably confused because you come from the idea that I don't know what I'm talking about.
Regarding Cezanne/Rembrandt/Phoenix/Strix, we were talking CPU, so I figured you would understand I was referring to their respective CPUs, not GPUs or whatnot.
When jdubs03 pointed the roadmap, I wanted to highlight how it probably meant different things between the document and the poll, given that official names are yet to be confirmed. So, I've asked what an Oryon "V1 to V2" means? Is something like Cezanne to Rembrandt, which went from Zen 3 to Zen3+, or a variant of the same microarchitecture "generation" (can I call it this way?) enough? Is it more like Phoenix to Strix, meaning Zen 4 to Zen 5 or full microarchitecture "generation" advance? We clearly don't know how Qualcomm will approach its naming, and they do have a track record of not perfectly tying major changes with major numbers, so we really should be clearer.
The late 2025/early 2026 in the leak is the
timeframe (keyword here) of X2/X Gen 2, etc, whose Oryon (referred to in the document as "Oryon V2") is going to be based on Phoenix-L, for all we know a somewhat minor variant of the Phoenix core, and not Pegasus as the original poll asked.
Bear in mind that they still haven't introduced their efficiency core yet, so their will probably be something like Oryon Gold 1xx and Oryon Silver 1xx for Snapdragon 8 Gen4, while a future SD8 gen with a new CPU µArch would be branded something like Oryon Gold 2xx and Oryon Silver 2xx.
Will it? I precisely gave a counterexample. We have Kryo Prime
in the same year (and the same "Gen X" for that matter) based on both X2 and A715, which are (very) different microarchitectures. Same thing happened with Kryo 670 and 680 (equal generation/series, very different cores).
