What aboout the Galaxy Variant?
Leaker says that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (via AndroidAuthority) for Galaxy (SM8650-AC) will have an octa-core configuration consisting of one Prime Cortex-X4 CPU core running at 3.4GHz, five Performance Cortex-A720 CPU cores with a clock speed of 3.15GHz/2.96GHz, and two Efficiency Cortex-A520 CPU cores running at 2.27GHz. In the past we have seen benchmarking results where the 8 Gen3 Galaxy variant has two groups of performance A720 cores. One group is running at a higher clock speed than the other. So maybe that’s the same thing we can expect.
So the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy is rumored to have an overclocked Prime core and underclocked Performance and Efficiency cores, and the reason for this configuration is unclear. Additionally, according to a report by tipster Ice Universe(@UniverseIce) the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 For Galaxy processor, is said to feature a GPU clocked at an impressive 1,000MHz. This clock speed is anticipated to be higher than the GPU clock speed found in the standard version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in other flagship Android smartphones.
