During the CES in Las Vegas, NVIDIA introduced its latest processor, the Tegra X1,as 50% more powerful than the Tegra K1. A significant comparison, however, until today, there was only one numerical indication of its performance: a benchmark on Geekbench where it had reached more than 1900 points on the single core test.
The Nvidia Tegra X1 goes on AnTuTu.
Today, the Tegra X1 has just passed a second benchmark, this time on AnTuTu where it also breaks all records with a total score of 74,977 points. Not to mention the fact that this is the first time that a processor has managed to exceed the 70,000-point threshold, we notice that the performance of the CPU alone has reached a score of 11,295 points, which is also excellent.
More than 70,000 points, a record!
On the Maxwell GPU built into the Soc, we see 3D performance in the order of 21,093 points in 4K on the benchmark tool, which is once again quite incredible. Compared to the Kepler GPU (192 cores) found alongside the Tegra K1, which was already a power monster, the performance of the Maxwell GPU (256 hearts) seems to be borderline the supernatural.
Based on a 64 Bit set of instructions, the Tegra X1 processor consists of four A53 cores and four other A57 cores. It supports DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5 standards and can play and record videos in Ultra HD at a rate of 60 fps. Unfortunately, it is also very energy-intensive.
It remains to be seen what will be the first device to be able to take advantage of it. The second generation of the Nvidia Shield Tablet expected in the summer of 2015 is already the ideal candidate. The Soc would also be expected in several consoles of games and connected vehicles.
