Snapdragon is going all out with powering Windows 10 on the ARM architecture. The upcoming Snapdragon 1000 seems to be targeted at fancy high-end notebooks running Windows 10 ARM, or maybe even some Chromebook.
Winfuture.de has shared a lot of data regarding the processor. It seems that the chip will compete with Intel’s Y and U series of Core CPUs, which are the low-power mobile CPUs. It will have a TDP of 12 W, much more than the 5 W found in the chips of mobile phones, which may require active cooing.
