Snapdragon 8 Gen 3’s GPU clock speed

According to notable leaker Ice Universe, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy will have a GPU, which is assumed to be dubbed as Adreno 750, that could clock in at 1000 MHz (1 GHz) speed. What this means is that the upcoming GPU is 28 percent faster compared to the current Adreno GPU of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy rated at 719 MHz.

In September, an alleged Vulkan benchmark of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 was shared by the same source. The result even indicated about 50 percent GPU score uptick or with 5,000 higher points from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2’s GPU with 10,000 points.

But until now, there’s no way of measuring how snappier the custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 3’s GPU is if tested in actual gaming or how fast it is compared to other high-end chip alternatives. Nonetheless, the clock speed gains in GPU are likely that will be a tangible difference that users will surely notice, especially if coming from older smartphone models.

Other GPU goodness on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

Aside from the higher GPU speed, the Adreno 750 overall brings new features and optimizations such as 8K resolution and 240 fps upscaling when playing games without the added power consumption. There is upgraded ray-tracing and support for Unreal Engine 5 with Lumen as well.

In the other silicon sections, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 For Galaxy will also get an overclocked processor. However, it’s unclear what the speed difference is over the non-boosted processor of the regular version. Furthermore, Qualcomm markets the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with a heavy focus on AI.
