MediaTek officially announced the arrival of its new Dimensity 9300 chipset with Generative AI and several other performance upgrades. The chipset is now making its global debut.
MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Global Launch
The MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is an octa-core chipset based on TSMC’s 3rd generation 4nm architecture. It is equipped with four Cortex-X4 cores and four Cortex-A720 cores, and the chipset has a maximum clock speed of 3.25GHz.
The Dimensity 9300 is 15% faster in single-core performance, and up to 40% faster in multi-core tasks as compared to its predecessor, the Dimensity 9200.
- 15% single-core performance upgrade
- 40% multi-core performance upgrade
- 4X Cortex-X4 performance cores up to 3.25GHz
- 4X Cortex-A720 efficiency cores up to 2.0GHz
- 18MB L3 + SLC cache: 29% larger than previous generation
- Up to 33% multi-core power saving vs previous generation CPU
- 3rd generation TSMC 4nm chip production
- 2nd generation thermal optimized package design by MediaTek
MediaTek says that its latest chipset is eight times faster in transformer-based Generative AI while being 45% more power efficient. These AI capabilities can be utilized for processing text, images, and even music.
The Dimensity 9300 also gets a huge graphics upgrade with the Immortalis-G720 GPU. It is a 12-core GPU capable of raytracing and offers a 46% better performance than its predecessor. The processor is capable of handling raytracing gaming at 60fps.
The Dimensity 9300 features the 5G R16 modem that supports sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G bands. It also supports WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, along with NavIC navigation.
