Alleged Tensor G5 Chip of Google Spotted on the Geekbench Database: More Core Specs Revealed
Google’s next Tensor G5 chip has already been part of multiple reports in the past and we have come to know about a few of its key specs through these updates. Now, Google’s Tensor G5 processor (alleged) has been spotted on the Geekbench database, again pointing to its core specs and GPU.
Here’s more about it.
Alleged Google Tensor G5 Chip – Geekbench Listing
The alleged Tensor G5 chip of Google, as per the Geekbench listing, is pointed out to have a codename ‘Frankel’ (previously it was said to have the codename ‘Laguna’), and has scored single-core and multi-core scores of 1323 points and 4004 points respectively. The listing further mentions that it will have a core configuration with one primary core, five performance cores, and two efficiency cores, as revealed earlier. They will have respective clock speeds of 3.40GHz, 2.86GHz, and 2.44GHz. Finally, Imagination Technologies’ PowerVR D-Series DXT-48-1536 GPU is also integrated on to the chipset.
Speaking of previous updates, the upcoming Tensor G5 chip will be manufactured by TSMC and not by Samsung this time, and it will consist of a ARM Cortex X4 core, five ARM Cortex A725 cores, and two ARM Cortex A520 cores according to the recently shared leaked report. The Tensor G5 is believed to be made using the 3nm class N3E process node, with a die size of 121 mm².
Performance-wise, even if the Tensor G5 chip doesn’t compete well with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite and MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 processors, when compared to the previous Tensor chipsets, the Tensor G5 shows significant performance improvements. Along with the powerful software that the brand will provide, the Tensor G5 chip will be offering better performance on the next Pixel devices that are coming with this latest chip onboard.
