Qualcomm is preparing to launch more mainstream and entry-level Snapdragon X CPUs in its stack such as the upcoming 8-Core model which is called "X1P-42-100". This chip is supposed to bring the Snapdragon X platform to more budget and mainstream audiences who want to experience the AI PC segment. We managed to get benchmarks of a retail laptop featuring this particular SOC ahead of its launch. The specific model is the ASUS ProArt PZ13 "HT5306QA_HT5306QA".

In terms of specifications, the Qualcomm Snadpragon X Plus "X1P-42-100" features eight Oryon CPU cores based on a 4nm process node. The cores are segmented into two clusters with one of the clusters operating at 3.24 GHz clock speeds and the other operating at 3.42 GHz clock speeds. The max single and multi-core boost clocks are rated at 3.4 & 3.2 GHz. The CPU features 30 MB of total cache with each cluster offering 12 MB of L2 cache.

On the GPU side, the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus "X1P-42-100" CPU features the Adreno X1-45 integrated chip which features a clock speed of 280 MHz and delivers 1.7 TFLOPs of compute and that's really low versus the standard 4.6-3.8 TFLOPs for the rest of the SKUs. The ASUS laptops are equipped with LPDDR5X-8448 memory and the NPU remains the same, rated at 45 TOPS. It looks like Qualcomm prioritized NPU or AI performance over GPU performance for this chip to align with Microsoft's Copilot+ requirements.
