    Recently, a digital blogger broke the news that Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 will support GPU frame insertion, and games like "Genshin Impact" will experience 120fps high frame mode.

    It is reported that the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 chip GPU frame insertion is a new technology developed by Qualcomm, and the latency of this interpolated frame scheme is much lower than the external independent display chip scheme currently used by manufacturers, comparable to the native high frame rate, and the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 terminal will support this new technology across the system. It is worth noting that Qualcomm's existing Snapdragon 8 Gen3 and Snapdragon 8s Gen3 mobile platforms will also support this technology through upgrades and updates.

    In fact, 120fps "Genshin Impact" is nothing new now, Apple has achieved this a long time ago, but the heat dissipation is worrying; In the Android camp, the newly released OnePlus Ace 3 Pro last week has taken the lead in achieving Android's only native 120 frames, which has a better experience than the traditional frame insertion scheme. However, the way to achieve it is to "transform" the Snapdragon 8 Gen3, with the tidal architecture and the second-generation Tiangong cooling system, so the performance release is stronger than other Snapdragon 8 Gen3 models, and with the exclusive custom e-sports-grade game graphics chip, it will finally achieve 120 frame rate "Genshin Impact" game play.

    If the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 is launched in the future, the 120 frame rate "Genshin Impact" should gradually become popular, which also means that almost most mobile games will be able to experience the silky smooth experience brought by ultra-high frame rates in the future, which will also play a certain role in promoting the game market.

    According to the information released by Qualcomm, Snapdragon 8 Gen4 will debut in October this year, this chip is manufactured for the first time using TSMC's 3nm process, which is Qualcomm's first 3nm mobile phone chip, and for the first time, it has introduced the self-developed Nuvia architecture, completely abandoning the Arm public architecture, which contains 2 Nuvia Phoenix performance cores and 6 Nuvia Phoenix M cores, which is a major change in the Snapdragon mobile platform.

    In addition, the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 is expected to exceed 10,000 points in the Geekbench 6 multi-core score, which can be called one of the most powerful mobile phone chips in Qualcomm history. In addition, the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 will also incorporate the new Snapdragon X80 5G modem, which supports peak download speeds of up to 10Gbps and theoretical upload speeds of 3.5Gbps, and is compatible with both 5G mmWave and sub-6GHz bands.

    And regarding the processor frequency, there is news that it could reach a staggering 4.3GHz, which is comparable to the Snapdragon X Elite for PC notebooks. Previously, the Snapdragon 8 Gen3 had a maximum frequency of only 3.3GHz, so the 1GHz increase in this generation is incredible, especially when transitioning from 4nm to 3nm processes. However, some sources point out that achieving a frequency of 4.3GHz is almost impossible, and even if it does, it may only be a brief moment, and the power consumption of a single core could reach 10W, which is unaffordable for any mobile phone. A more reasonable boost frequency might be 3.8GHz, which is in line with the highest level of the Apple A17 Pro and equivalent to the regular frequency of the Snapdragon X Elite, which is still 500MHz higher than the Snapdragon 8 Gen3.

    Among the flagship models in the second half of the year, the Xiaomi 15 series should be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 chip for the first time, and then OPPO, vivo, iQOO, OnePlus, Honor, Redmi, Realme, etc. will also be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 chip.
