The MediaTek Dimensity 9500's new core, codenamed 'Travis', was recently featured on Geekbench. Focused on enhancing efficiency and performance, Travis is expected to offer significant improvements in instructions per clock cycle (IPC), moving the industry away from the traditional emphasis on clock speeds. This architecture supports ARM's Scalable Matrix Extension, ideal for AI and signal processing. The Dimensity 9500 will also include additional cores and a new Mali-G1 GPU. Additionally, ARM is retiring the Cortex branding in favor of multiple new lines for different technology sectors.
The Travis core, offering double-digit growth in IPC, marks a shift toward efficiency over raw speed, possibly ending the gigahertz race in mobile processors.
The new architecture introduces a diverse core design with a focus on better performance through improved IPC, rather than just higher clock speeds.
