The 9400 is built on a 3nm process and is “up to 40 percent more power-efficient” than its predecessor, the 9300. It comprises one Arm Cortex-X925 core running at 3.62GHz, along with three Arm Cortex-X4 and four Cortex-A720 cores, both of which were announced at last year’s Computex. MediaTek says that this combination results in 35 percent faster single-core performance and 28 percent faster multi-core performance compared to the 9300. The chipset also includes Arm’s new 12-core Immortalis-G925 GPU with 40 percent faster ray…
