Samsung may be working on a mobile GPU to pair with Exynos processors for 2015

samsung_exynos_5_chip A major component of Samsung’s business deals with mobile processors, and their Exynos CPUs are always top-notch chips even when compared to offerings from Qualcomm and NVIDIA. However, Samsung typically relies on other manufacturers for the GPU in their mobile devices, but it looks like that might change next year.


A new report suggests Samsung is in the process of developing its own GPU to pair with its Exynos processors, and it’s slated for release as early as mid-2015. If that date is accurate, we’ll probably miss seeing it in the Galaxy S6, but there’s a good chance we could see it end up in the Galaxy Note 5 or whatever else succeeds the Note lineup in the second half of the year.


Samsung is also planning on developing their own 64-bit cores for their processors, abandoning ARM’s Cortex architecture. While that’s a lot of work for Samsung, it could certainly pay off in the optimization and performance department. We’ll find out more in the next few months.
