Memory channelsiCounted in 64-bit channels, as Intel and AMD count them. A DDR5 module has two 32-bit subchannels and makers count it as one channel. A maker that counts narrower channels and states their width is converted by the total bus width, so Qualcomm's 8 channels of 16 bits are 2. A total bus width alone is divided by 64, so AMD's 256-bit interface is 4. The maker's own count goes in the source note.

Apple's iPhone 16 Pro release lists a 6-core GPU for the same chip, so the core count is stored as two variant rows (5 and 6).4Press releaseapple.com/newsroom/2026/03/say-hello-to-macbook-neoRead 21 October 2026Apple, 4 March 2026: MacBook Neo has the A18 Pro with a 5-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine, and goes on sale on 11 March 2026. The 5-core GPU is one core fewer than the 6-core GPU of the iPhone 16 Pro, so the GPU core count is stored as two variant rows (5 and 6) and not as one base value.

GPU coresiAs the chip maker counts them: AMD compute units, Intel Xe-cores, Apple GPU cores. Counts from different makers are not comparable. Intel execution units (EUs) are not Xe-cores and are not stored here. Apple sells some chips with two GPU core counts under one name, so it is per variant.
