So I keep seeing these articles and videos about how Qualcomm made a CPU that can beat Apple’s M2 Max and even Intel’s i9 series. I wasn’t aware that Qualcomm was a player in the desktop CPU space. Does that mean we’ll soon be able to buy gaming laptops powered by Oryon CPUs? Will I be able to build a desktop PC with the Oryon CPU? I’ve only ever used Qualcomm’s Snapdragon CPUs which are for Android phones and definitely can’t compete with Apple’s laptop chips, so I’m not sure how their desktop lineup works.

It has already been leaked that the Oryon is going to be a dumpster fire, all thanks to Qualcomm’s sheer incompetence. So don’t get your hopes up too much. On the bright side things might improve if Qualcomm can learn from their mistakes.
