Along with Immortalis G720 GPU

ARM has unveiled its next-generation CPU and GPU cores – the Cortex-A520, Cortex-A720, and Cortex-X4.

The CPU cores bring performance and power-efficiency improvements, making future smartphones. ARM also unveiled the Immortalis G720 GPU, but Samsung might not use it in Exynos chips.

The new cores are likely to be seen in the MediaTek Dimensity 9300, Samsung Exynos 2400, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processors later this year or early next year.

The Galaxy S24 series is expected to feature the Exynos 2400 and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chips.

All new CPU cores from ARM are 64-bit-only. The processors using ARM’s DSU-120 (DynamIQ Shared Unit 120) design can feature up to 14-core CPUs, which means they would work well for PCs and laptops.

ARM claims a CPU performance jump of 27 per cent in multi-threaded tasks. It also says that its Cortex-X4 CPU core is 40 per cent more power efficient than Cortex-X3. The Cortex-X3 is used in chips like the Dimensity 9200 and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It means that chips using the Cortex-X4 CPU core will be much more power-efficient when performing high-end tasks like camera, gaming, and multitasking. The Cortex-A520 core is 22 per cent more power-efficient, while the Cortex-A720 is around 20 per cent more power-efficient than their predecessor cores.
