Ice Lake CPUs are based on a 10nm process node, which helps propel Ice Lake CPUs ahead of 14nm Whiskey Lake chips, even with a lower boost clock. Its 10th-gen Comet Lake CPUs clock higher still, reaching up to 4.4GHz in some configurations. Its 10th-gen Ice Lake CPUs have a lower clock speed between 0.7GHz and 1.2GHz base clock, but they turbo up to 3.7GHz on one core and 3.3Ghz across all of them simultaneously. The best of Intel’s eighth-generation Whiskey Lake Core i5 CPUs operate at 1.6GHz but can turbo boost up to 4.1GHz on a single core when required or up to 3.7GHz across all four cores simultaneously. Intel’s Core i5 mobile CPUs use a more traditional design with four general-purpose cores, but some have support for hyperthreading, meaning that they can handle up to eight threads at once. It has eight of them to work with, four of which are lower-power Silver cores running at 1.8GHz, while the others are Gold cores running at 2.84GHz. The Snapdragon 8cx sports Qualcomm’s Kryo 495 CPU cores. You can check our CPU guide if you’re interested in further information. Here’s how it stacks up against Intel’s midrange Core i5 CPUs. Where previous Always Connected Windows laptops powered by Snapdragon 835 and 850 chips have seen mixed results, perhaps the new Snapdragon 8cx can prove more capable.
