    The answer is in the article…

    It is worth noting that by the time Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite hits store shelves, Apple’s M3 line of CPUs (which are expected to be announced this week) and Intel’s next-gen Meteor Lake laptops processors with its beefy NPU and GPU, will be the new competition.

      They’ll have to compete in price to have any chance

        That really depends on the TDP of the Intel and AMD chips. Both have been progressively pumping more and more juice into their silicon lately in an attempt to be the “fastest”.

        If Qualcomm is within spitting distance at a much lower TDP then this might actually be the beginning of the end for x86.

          I guess we’ll have to wait for price, benchmarks, and battery life

            I’m cautiously optimistic, a new player in PC silicon is exciting if nothing else.
