    As reported by Huawei Central, the new Qingyun W515x is equipped with China’s bleeding-edge octa-core Kirin 9000C processor, which clocks up to 3.1 GHz.

    While the CPU specs remain a secret, the CPU cooler is a low-profile unit that reportedly maintains a chassis temperature below 30C at maximum load. The fan noise level is also quiet, coming in at 21.82 dB.

      below 30C at maximum load

      Yeah right. I’ll believe it when I see it tested independently.

      Genuinely seems farfetched.

        Or it’s just shitty small cores? Even China’s best core designes are 10 years behind, even tho they have great tech in some small aspects like their branch prediction system

          lol you are absolutely taking the piss if you think these are only comparable to Haswell. Orientalist bias is pouring off of this statement from your 9 day old account with an entire 2 comments ever made. The Chinese brainpan just can’t possibly compete!

      Sounds impressive but this should really be the baseline for non enthusiast CPU temps and power draw if x86 processors weren’t so inefficient.

        30 C (86 F) should be baseline at load? Lol. This thing is severely underclocked if that is the temp at load. Laptop processors basically run at 90 C

          Oh I didn’t read the at load part. It’s perfectly reasonable at idle and low load applications.

          But should they run at 90c? They certainly don’t have to, and it would sure be nice to just use much more efficient chips that don’t produce all that waste heat and burn through power.
