Qualcomm to hold event for Snapdragon X on April 24
Details about the event are not yet known, but the video has fueled speculation about Qualcomm’s plans. Many users think it’s aimed at its first desktop processor, the Snapdragon X Elite. The first Windows 11 PCs powered by the X Elite are expected to launch by the summer.
Qualcomm first announced the Snapdragon X Elite late last year. In 2024, it said that brands such as Lenovo, HP and Dell will release laptops. Earlier leaks also revealed the design of a Lenovo laptop that will allegedly use the new processor.
Apple Watch Series X, one of the most anticipated devices of this year, became a hot topic with its features. Here are the details...
According to some users, Qualcomm may be holding this event to detail the Snapdragon X processor. Rumors recently surfaced about the Snapdragon X Plus, which is said to be less powerful than the X Elite.
On the other hand, engineers have stated that gaming will be possible and “extremely efficient” with the Snapdragon X Elite. This means that most games on Steam will run on Snapdragon PCs without the need for optimization.
Qualcomm claims that games will run smoothly with x86/x64 emulation. The company’s Adreno GPU will also support DirectX 11, 12 and Vulkan graphics APIs and OpenGL technology.
