Samsung Exynos 2400 graphics performance is slightly inferior to Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

A few days ago, Samsung unveiled its next-generation mobile processor, the Exynos 2400. Building upon the foundation of the Exynos 2200, Samsung has incorporated numerous enhancements. Notably, CPU performance has soared by 70%, while artificial intelligence (AI) workload acceleration has witnessed a staggering 14.7-fold increase. Additionally, with the integration of the RDNA 3 architecture, the GPU now boasts superior gaming and ray-tracing capabilities.

Recent leaks pertaining to single-core and multi-core benchmark performances reveal scores of 2067/6520 for the Exynos 2400, trailing behind the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which, purportedly featuring Qualcomm’s third-generation Snapdragon 8, scored 2234/6807. Although the Exynos 2400’s CPU performance slightly lags behind its competitor, many are intrigued to see if the Xclipse 940, with its new architecture, could outperform the Adreno 750 in GPU prowess.

According to a Wccftech report, the Galaxy S24+ models featuring the Exynos 2400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 respectively appeared in the Geekbench 6’s OpenCL and Vulkan tests, identified by the model numbers SM-S926B and SM-S926U. In the OpenCL domain, both processors exhibited comparable performances, with scores of 14918 and 15055 for the Exynos 2400 and the third-generation Snapdragon 8 respectively, the latter merely edging out by a marginal 0.9%. However, in the Vulkan tests, the Snapdragon 8 showcased a discernible advantage, scoring 17031, a 10% lead over the Exynos 2400’s 15479.

Transitioning to the RDNA 3 architecture, the Exynos 2400 has made significant strides in graphical performance, markedly surpassing the Xclipse 920. It’s imperative to note that power efficiency remains one of the paramount metrics for mobile SoCs. Given the variances between Samsung’s 4nm LPP+ process and TSMC’s N4P process, real-world application performances may not necessarily mirror benchmark outcomes.
