Not to be outdone by NVIDIA’s Tegra 4 announcement, or Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 news, Samsung has announced the Exynos 5 Octa. It’s an octa-core CPU that was designed with low power mobile devices in mind and usesARM’s big.LITTLE processing.
What that means, is that there are two groups of four cores that can run at any given time. When performance is needed, four Cortex A15 cores can handle the heavy lifting, and when doing more common tasks, you have four Cortex A7 cores to take care of things.
Because it’s using this strategy, this chip is more suitable form small form factor devices like phones. Samsung says this tech will allow the chip to use up to 70-percent less power than a traditional quad-core A15 SoC, or even a dual core Exynos 5 like the one seen in the Nexus 10.
We may not have received the Galaxy S4 news everyone was wanting, but this may be even better. Expect to see this chip make it’s way into tablets, Chromebooks, and phones this year.
Fantasticno jeste, nego da li ce i koliko programa to moci da iskoriste u potpunosti… Postoji problem sa procesorima od 8. jezgra na PC-u, a videcemo telefon…
Ovo teoretski zvuci jako dobro ali vidjecemo u praksi sta je u pitanju. 28nm izrada dozvoljava ovako nesta, manja potrosnja i manje zagrijavanje ali kako programirati ovakav CPU…to je problem
E ovo je najbolji opis stanja stvari. To apsolutno nikome ne treba na telefonu sigurno. Ok mi je na ovim novim tabletima posto izlazi gomila novih sve zahtevnijih igrica. Ali na telefonu je to samo da mogu da kazu evo izbacili smo novi model i on ima sada brdo nekih, mega, giga koje ne sluze nicemu ali kupite nas novi telefon za 500-700e ipak je on najbolji na svetu naravno samo na papiru.
Nije baš tako, ja konkretno radim u Samsung-u i znam koliko znači paralelno procesiranje podataka na mobilnim uređajima. Pri tome ne mislim smao na telefone. već i na tablete i seriju Galaxy Note uređaja (kojisu nešto između). Ne možete porediti babe i žabe, quad core procesori na računaru poseduju drugačiju arhitekturu i namenjeni su drugačijem sklopu hardvera. Slažem se da ima malo i trke za prestiž i marketing-a, ali pouzdano znam da se velike pare ulažu u razvoj u Samsung-u tako da ćemo uskoro imati zanimljive nove uređaje iz Galaxy serije
Svrati do novog Merkatora, dole u prizemlju imas Samsung-ov Shop In Shop izlozbeni prostor u Handy-iju i izlozene sve Note modele pa cu ti uporediti uzivo. Ja sam tamo od utorka do subote popodne svaki dan
