Control is actually a fairly demanding game if you enable ray tracing. I’d wager that wasn’t enabled for this demo though

Nice, now do it with risc v too. Arm is cool and all but I really want to see some risc come back into the market.
Arm is a risc architecture. The original acronym was Acorn Risc Machine
They're talking about RISC V.
I was talking about them saying "I'd like to see some risc come back onto the market", I know RISC-V is a different architecture
This is the best summary I could come up with:
If you read my scoop last week, I bet you’ve been wondering — how well could a Snapdragon chip actually run Windows games?
With medium-weight games like Control and Baldur’s Gate 3, it looks like the target might be: 30 frames per second at 1080p screen resolution, medium settings, possibly with AMD’s FSR 1.0 spatial upscaling enabled.
That’s what Qualcomm has apparently been showing influencers, according to numerous videos from YouTubers, TikTokers, and “Snapdragon Insiders,” many of which were uploaded over the past week after they flew down to Qualcomm’s San Diego headquarters for the company’s “eXperience Day.”
While some of the videos feel a little promotional — one influencer talks about how he’s seeing “Elden Ring playing really nicely at about 30 frames per second” while actually showing Baldur’s Gate 3 running at a mere 21-24fps — it’s admittedly pretty neat to see games like these running on Arm silicon at all.
Enobong Etteh, aka BooredAtWork, has the video with the most uninterrupted gameplay footage; he apparently got to try Control, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Redout 2 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this February.
In early scenes from Control that don’t demand as much horsepower, we’re seeing frame rates that dip as low as 26fps in a firefight or between 30fps and 40fps just running around.
The original article contains 500 words, the summary contains 218 words. Saved 56%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
to give perspective,
the steam deck that runs zen 2 for cpu cores gets about 35 fps in elden ring, BG3 iirc is like around 30, except for act 3, which will be closer to 25.
Zen 2 is from 2019 to see how off it is.
