JAKARTA - It is known that Samsung and AMD will indeed cooperate in the development of System on Chip (SoC). AMD plays a role in building GPUs and Samsung makes SoCs for smartphones.

Compiled from Wccftech, Tuesday, September 7, previously rumors circulated that South Korean technology giant Samsung would only use its SoC dubbed Exynos 2100 in the Galaxy S series smartphone line. However, now Samsung plans to equip the Galaxy A series as well.

Interestingly, the Exynos chipset with GPU mRDNA will be divided into two categories. The first is a premium SoC that uses a GPU configuration with 4CU, while the second is a mid-range SoC with a 2CU GPU. Both will run at 1GHz.

Later, this SoC will use Cortex A-78, which is with a performance reduction of about 10 percent. But both Samsung and AMD guarantee that the overall performance of this SoC is still capable.

The latest leak also mentions that the benchmark result of the SoC, namely Manhattan 3.1, is at 127.5 FPS. Meanwhile, Aztec Normal is at 90.7 FPS, while Aztec High is at 39.65 FPS.

At the moment a cap of 30 percent or more isn't a problem and since the Exynos 2100 can't really go beyond 30 FPS at Aztec High, users will be able to see a good performance boost.

It is not yet known when Samsung and AMD will introduce the new chipset, and whether the two SoC variants will be launched simultaneously.
