Qualcomm has announced five Snapdragon X Plus and Snapdragon X Elite chipsets so far. However, it seems that the company has at least another five in development. Although the company has not officially confirmed as much yet, it has left hints within Adreno GPU driver files.

The first wave of Snapdragon X series devices have now started shipping with a choice of Snapdragon X Plus and Snapdragon X Elite chipsets. Officially, Qualcomm has announced a single Snapdragon X Plus variant, which it distributes as the X1P-64-100. By contrast, there are now four Snapdragon X Elite chips with the following specifications:

CPU cores CPU cache Max Multithread frequency Dual core boost GPU TFLOPS NPU TOPS Memory Type Transfer rate
X1E-00-1DE 12 42 MB 3.8 GHz 4.3 GHz 4.6 TFLOPS 45 TOPS LPDDR5x 8448 MT/s
X1E-84-100 12 42 MB 3.8 GHz 4.2 GHz 4.6 TFLOPS 45 TOPS LPDDR5x 8448 MT/s
X1E-80-100 12 42 MB 3.4 GHz 4.0 GHz 3.8 TFLOPS 45 TOPS LPDDR5x 8448 MT/s
X1E-78-100 12 42 MB 3.4 GHz None 3.8 TFLOPS 45 TOPS LPDDR5x 8448 MT/s

However, there have been rumblings of Qualcomm having created other Snapdragon X Plus variants, including the X1P-40-100 and X1P-42-100. Moreover, there have even been suggestions that Qualcomm has developed an 'SD1' variant with 80 CPU cores. Initial Adreno GPU driver files suggest that there could be another two Snapdragon X Plus chipsets though, along with a fifth Snapdragon X Elite option.

Specifically, the driver files show that Qualcomm has created the X1E-76-100, a lesser alternative to the X1E-78-100. Nonetheless, the X1E-76-100 has 12 CPU cores like the rest of the Snapdragon X Elite family. Consequently, we imagine that the X1E-76-100 has lower peak CPU speeds and or a restricted GPU.

Meanwhile, the drivers also confirm that the X1P-40-100 and X1P-42-100 have been in development. On top of that, there are references to the Snapdragon X1P-56-100 and X1P-62-100, all with 10 CPU cores. Unfortunately, it remains to be seen when these variants will ship, if at all.
