Qualcomm brought a company named Nuvia, which are ex-Apple engineers that help designed the M series Apple silicon chips to produce Oryon which exceeds Apple’s M2 Max in single threaded benchmarks.

The impression I get is than these are for PCs and laptops

I’ve been following the development of Asahi Linux (Linux on the M series MacBooks) with this new development there’s some exciting times to come.

    I’d expect them to start around 1k. Not many people are going to be buying these devices so there’s no economies of scale.

    Also I love how qualcomm announced this CPU and a day later Apple releases the M3 which is finally a real upgrade from the M1.

      1k like the Macbook air or 1k with actually good memory and storage specs?
