I've been playing Witcher III and Genshin Impact on a Windows Dev Kit 2023 which has a Snapdragon 8cx Gen3 and around 50% of the performance of an X Elite. I found playing in a borderless windows Vs full screen often gave a better experience. Witcher III kept crashing when set to full screen but was much more stable using a borderless window. You can make it appear full screen by setting display resolution to match borderless window resolution. To initially open Genshin Impact after installing game and assets, I had to hold the key while pressing the start button on the launcher app. A pop-up window appeared allowing me to set a screen resolution lower than my 4K display resolution and check borderless option. Once the game has loaded, you can press + keys to rescale the borderless window the be full screen. The game then defaults to this configuration for subsequent runs.
All I'm waiting for is Arm64 drivers from AMD and Nvidia so I can hook up an EGPU. GPD G1 will be perfect for portable setup.
These X-Elite spec sheets all have only USB4, which means they do not have 100% Thunderbolt support. Looking at the details, none of them list support for eGPUs. So, you should wait for the Intel in September if you want decent eGPU support on an ultrabook.
@@andyH_England USB 4 = thunderbolt 3 and 4. Both works
@@hexagonal7075 Only if the OEMs allow it, and I understand, like Apple Silicon, they do not. Maybe the graphic card makers are not happy that Qualcomm is taking their business by not using their dGPU, or ARM does not work on non-ARM graphics, I am not sure. But I would not recommend you buy these in the hope that one day they will support eGPUs.
Apple continues to block GPU drivers, after four years, and who is to say that Qualcomm will not do the same clearly, it would be a stupid business decision as it means people will buy the cheapest X Elite and use an eGPU killing off next year's Pro-X Elite devices.
@@andyH_England Qualcomm said they have no problems with AMD or Nvidia GPU pairing with X elite. Don't know if AMD or Nvidia Arm64 GPU drivers on Windows. I think AMD has Arm64 GPU drivers on Linux.
@@hexagonal7075 I have searched the Internet and there is zero indication that EGPU Support is coming. Hence why I would say not to buy it if you need that feature. The same with Linux, the boot loader is locked and Qcomm couldn’t say if Microsoft would release it anytime soon.
Snapdragon X Elite 🔋💪🔥
Awesome style brother!
I’m planning on using this mostly for emulation as my gaming solution. Will be a beast when ryujinx gets ported over 👌🏾
Yeah I am waiting for some goods emulation ports
@@BooredAtWork dolphin and aether sx2 have native windows on arm ports and they run great 👍🏾
this comment aged like milk :(
@@jasonchristian4307 Ryujinx is on arm now, but you have to compile it yourself. But yeah, it is sad :(
@@christianr.5868 u got some news??? thanks
There needs to be drivers for the igpu for these devices, and the ability to add dgpu if one wants to do so, but those gpus would have to be lower powered than their desktop counterparts for the time being.
The best rule is to buy deciding for what you have at the moment. ATM they promise a lot but the GPU drivers are very immature, DRM tools work only on real x86 and there’s no date for those things to be released.
So, as of now, this is a great chip that has a rather weak iGPU (until drivers are fixed) and lot of compatibility issues. As I said before, I would definitely buy a Ryzen AI 9 chip over this.
The honored one 🗣️ 🔥
Great review. Which do you think is a better purchase. The samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge or the asus zenbook Duo( 2024)?
Samsung all the way. If you buy Asus and have a screen issue but a key has some fingernail marks, they may refuse you access to the screen warranty 😂😂😂
i wouldn't trust Asus due to what happend recently with their warranty policy.
I'm looking forward to seeing arm on windows develop
does the x elite 78100 good enough to play fc24 ??? 45fps at 1080p would be quite playable already
There's a mistake in the description, it's the Surface Pro 11. Cheers
My question is why is the laptops with x elite so darn expensive cause amd radeon 780 heck vega 7 is beating these adreno gpus and these laptops cost like 600 to 700 dollars
Battery life
@@BooredAtWork but I seen like 7-8 reviews that gaming on them is like 1-1.2 hours max battery that's the same for other AMD APUs. They only good in standby
@@Deathdemon65they were talking about the shitty asus laptop, the Samsung would probably go 5 to 6 hours of gaming
With 8000 series Ryzen, snapdragon battery is not better. Also wait for july 15th 9000 series ryzen 5 hx 370 ai strix point - it should murder these snapdragons!
The grappling hook caused issues on my steam deck too. No idea why
Now that is quite interesting
Is it more powerful than the iPad M4? Can you play better? Which maintains fps better?
I used to have a surface laptop studio from last year and gaming was very bad in it i couldn’t even play Lego star wars the clone wars which is from like 2011 would a surface pro 11 be a upgrade or will il it be as bad as the laptop studio?
Did they really stop android emulation on windows as arm chip getting better?
You didn't mention the software you used to test the CPU and GPU
Geenbench 6
Goonbench 6
Production quality of your comparison video was excellent, but how you present is poor. The comparison is difficult to follow. I would prefer it if you shared the comparison for the bech marks, either in charts, or in tables. When discussing the games, go through each game, and tell me what laptop worked on it and what settings you needed to do to make it work. Thank you for the video.
How can you run game?
Do you think the ~1300 price tag is reasonable for these Qualcomm laptops?
These new computers are like you took all the ingredients for the MacBook m1 but you put them together wrong. About the only place where it is clearly Superior is video playback time of 15.5 hours, almost 1h more than macbook, 3x longer than x86/Intel. It's definitely inferior for playing games that run on both platforms and for video editing. The mac saves power by doing lots of special things to save memory. Take mac memory, multiply by 1.5x, then decide if you are happy with the mac price vs this price. Macs are still 15-20% more efficient. Please wait for the AMD HX 370 AI on July 15th. It should crush these devices!
@@dgillies5420 thanks for the insight
Why does nobody test native arm games like wow
I'm about to give my Surface Pro a run for its money this coming Friday.
I got called out on an emergency meeting the week the new raids come out, LOL... So my only option is to test my luck in the hotel room with my Surface Pro, or bail on the first week of the raid.
Early testing has been good. I flew around Dongol and ran some heroics with it. Stayed around the 50-60 fps mark. Able to play. And easily do dailies and shit. So it's doing what I wanted it to.
I wanted a device I could draw on, but also play WoW. Couldn't do that with an iPad. And you can't draw on a Macbook.
I would like to see the resident evil remakes on these devices
These or Huawei mate x pro 2024 for gaming?
You did put these laptops on performance mode right as there all really low compared to other reviews
@@harryvlogs7833 gay
@SLICK8116 ahhh poor dude has to default to homophonic insults cause he's wrong 😢
Looks like Qualcomm needs to put massive work on their graphics software and towards their chips to actually compete with Apple silicon .
The hardware is not good enough to compete with the Mac or PC GPUs, ... You'll have to wait for a second generation!
Has nothing to do with hardware
Soo basically a 1650 gpu?
More like gtx 970m
You forgot to mention that most of these games were emulated and not native
“ARM are the most powerful processors on the market” Meanwhile, the 2015 game (The Witcher 3) barely reaches 60 frames on minimum graphics settings. ARM remained (Apple M) and remains and will remain for another 10 years the processor for 2D artists (weak for 3D) and office workers. No revolution in the world of processors. Meanwhile, my 3070 laptop handles it all without a connected charger much BETTER.
Why do you think you cant have an arm pc woth a 3070?
you got no iq, this thing is an SOC running at 50 watts max
Can it run msfs 2020
Does microsoft send to every blogers same tasks?
Task?
@@BooredAtWork PR mailout or PR package, every bloggers make same video about new Copilot+ products in gaming, even name of videos
I always do gaming videos on this channel. MS and other brands will send out review units. But they don't tell us what to make in terms of videos
And here me getting excited cause I was playing dungeon keeper 2 and nfsu2 on my phone lil
Prey woeks great on the surface
SNAPDRAGON gamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
First gen snapdragon x elite is not for windows. Evade at all cost.
Yes, but only one can be used as a tablet. Sorry, need to upgrade my surface pro installed in my car :P
Can i play valorant on it?
HP runs only 8gig ram
imagine playing all this on phone since it's using ARM chip
Games are running as good as my 9 years old gtx 970m laptop! When they run ! Come on sheeps time to buy the intel killer new revolution as told by all the paid reviewers !
Can we finally get a proper GPU with those pity Arms
Nope!
Can I play gta v online in surface pro 11?
this is better than mac cuz it's windows and can play games oh wait but the ships suck for games
Computers based on ARM architecture (just like Mac PCs) are not made for playing, but for working. If you want to play, buy a real gaming computer, or a portable console, as it was developed for this purpose.
anyone gonna test the surface pro 11 on roblox max graphics????
saw some kid playing minecraft with this tablet at my local library one day.
I'm really perplexed to see reviews of this type and above all to read the comments that are absurdly useless and devoid of intelligent content. You can also do gaming tests. BUT does it make sense to do them on PCs that are absolutely not set up? Gaming machines are all something else. They are much more powerful, larger and heavier, capable of being powered to handle the power demands of dedicated graphics cards costing several hundred dollars. Do you think it's really smart to make such comparisons? These PCs with chip arm
they are fabulous for the user group they are aimed at. Also, why spend time gaming with Arm chips when we all know that emulation X seriously compromises any kind of performance? But are you serious?
*Please Give Timestamps* 😢😢😢
Can you please test genshin impact on it
So gaming wise it's a pass. Otherwise it's decent.
for gaming still AMD RYZEN is no1
I need that Gojo homescreen image on your Omnibook X
Hard pass.
ARM SUCKS.....don't do it
Every smartphones, pc and consoles run with Arm.
Worst laptops
Nah depends on what your needs are
Snapdragon X Elite 🔋🔋💪
@@christianr.5868absolutely right
Play on Macbook bro 😂
