Support for new OpenGL ES 3.2* features like compute shaders.

Advanced API support, including OpenGL ES 3.2† and DirectX 11.2, to help enable more-complex and more-efficient mobile 3D graphics for apps and games.

Dynamic hardware tessellation designed to support visually realistic scenes, with lower memory use and lower power consumption.

Up to 100% faster General-Purpose GPU (GPGPU) performance over predecessor Adreno 420 GPU.

Up to 20% improvement in power efficiency over predecessor Adreno 420 GPU*.

Up to 30% improvement in graphics performance over predecessor Adreno 420 GPU*.

Support for console-quality graphics features – such as enhanced lighting and shading realistic faces and animation and deeper 3D detail through hardware tessellation and geometry shaders – at up to Ultra HD resolution.

You can use these tools with the Vulkan API as part of the process of optimizing your apps for commercial devices powered by the Snapdragon 820 processor.Īdreno 430 GPU is embedded into the Snapdragon 810 processors and offers: Qualcomm will also be releasing a community edition of user-mode Vulkan driver binaries for Adreno A4xx and A5xx GPUs† soon. Qualcomm is also announcing upcoming support for Vulkan in QTI’s developer tools, including Snapdragon Profiler and the Adreno SDK. (QTI), has announced support for Vulkan™ starting with the Adreno 530 GPU in the Snapdragon 820 processor.

Its subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Qualcomm is on the Board of Promoters for Khronos Group.

Shared Virtual memory that enables simultaneous data sharing between the OpenCL host and the GPU.

Vulkan enables the next generation of graphics performance by adding multi-threaded command buffer generation and explicit control of advanced graphics capabilities within Snapdragon’s Adreno GPUs

A530 will be the first GPU to support new Vulkan API.
