Qualcomm Adreno X2-90

The Qualcomm Adreno X2-90 is a fast integrated graphics card in the fastest Snapdragon X2 Elite (Extreme) SoCs with a clock speed of up to 1850 MHz.
The Adreno iGPU supports DirectX 12.2 Ultimate, Vulkan 1.4 and OpenCL 3.0. According to Qualcomm, there are also ray tracing improvements (hardware support).
According to Qualcomm, the iPU is up to 2.3 times faster than the previous generation in the Snapdragon X SoC. Until now, however, driver support and game support were not ideal, which meant that many current games did not run under Windows or only ran to a limited extent.
The SoC is produced in the modern 3NP process at TSMC and should have good efficiency.
