AMD GX-411GA vs Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD GX-411GA and the Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD GX-411GA 4 core processor released in Q2/2013 with the Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 which has 8 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2019.

The AMD GX-411GA is a 4 core processor with a clock frequency of 1.10 GHz. The processor can compute 4 threads at the same time. The Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 clocks with 3.00 GHz, has 8 CPU cores and can calculate 8 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 16 GB of memory in a maximum of 1 memory channels is supported by the AMD GX-411GA, while the Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 supports a maximum of 16 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 34.1 GB/s enabled.

The AMD GX-411GA has a TDP of 15 W. The TDP of the Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 is 7 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD GX-411GA has 2.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 28 nm. The cache of Qualcomm Snapdragon Microsoft SQ1 is at 2.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 7 nm.
