Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx vs Intel Celeron 5305U

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx is a 8 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.84 GHz. The processor can compute 8 threads at the same time. The Intel Celeron 5305U clocks with 2.30 GHz, has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 2 threads in parallel.

Processors with the support of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors. Algorithms for ML improve their performance the more data they have collected via software. ML tasks can be processed up to 10,000 times faster than with a classic processor.

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 8 memory channels is supported by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx, while the Intel Celeron 5305U supports a maximum of 64 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx has a TDP of 7 W. The TDP of the Intel Celeron 5305U is 15 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx has 2.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 7 nm. The cache of Intel Celeron 5305U is at 2.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
