Samsung is testing different configurations of Exynos 2200

There have been rumors that Samsung will release Exynos 2200 this summer, but it has not been seen. As an SoC using AMD-related GPU technology, Samsung Exynos 2200 can be described as twists and turns. Although it has quite good benchmark results, it is rumored that there are problems in manufacturing and power consumption, which has delayed the appearance time.

According to Wccftech reports, previous news stated that Exynos 2200 consists of a Cortex-X2 super large core, three large cores, and four small cores, and the equipment suspected of carrying the SoC has also appeared in the benchmark database, but in fact, there are different versions of Exynos 2200. At present, Samsung is testing Exynos 2200 with different configurations. In addition to the 1+3+4 configuration, there is also a 4+4 configuration. It consists of four Cortex-A710 cores (2.50 GHz) and four Cortex-A510 (1.73 GHz). GHz). The reason Samsung did this is to find a version that can balance performance and power consumption.

Compared with the 1+3+4 configuration, the 4+4 configuration removes the Cortex-X2 super core, weakening the CPU performance, in order to give up more power consumption to the GPU of the mRDNA architecture, this is more conducive to the increase of its frequency, improving the graphics performance while keeping the overall power consumption of the SoC at a reasonable level. Exynos 2200’s GPU code-named “Voyager”, integrates 6 CUs with a total of 384 stream processors, supports ray tracing and variable-rate shading, which can make up for Samsung’s SoC’s long-standing weakness in graphics performance.

Samsung will use Exynos 2200 on the Galaxy S22 series unveiled early next year, but Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 may be used in some regions.
