I’m currently contemplating on buying a new laptop with the new snapdragon x elite chips but can’t fully grasp the pros/cons of owning an ARMM-native pc vs the more common x86 one. I guess my main concern is if it will be a worry long-term wise? I only have a low-moderate info on tech hence the question. TIA!
In: Technology
These new “ARM” chips are actually an entire computer on a single chip, meaning your CPU, GPU, NPU, SSD, and RAM are all on the same chip and therefore really close together requiring less energy to do things.
So, the result is faster, quieter, cooler, and much, much longer battery life.
Another way to look at it, if it normally takes 8 hours to drive to grammas house, and then she moves in with you, the energy (effort) to get to her is considerably less.
I for one welcome our new ARM overlords! So much better …
