       | For context, there was a lot of hullabaloo a while ago when the
       | Adreno 730 was posting super impressive benchmarks, outpacing
       | Apple's GPU and putting up a good fight against AMD and NVIDIA's
       | lower/mid range cards.
       | 
       | Since then, with the Snapdragon X, there's been a bit of a
       | deflation which has shown the lead flip dramatically when
       | targeting more modern graphics loads. The Adreno now ranks behind
       | the others when it comes to benchmarks that reflect desktop
       | gaming, including being behind Apple's GPU.
       | 
       | It'll be interesting to see how Qualcomm moves forward with newer
       | GPU architectures. Whether they'll sacrifice their mobile lead in
       | the pursuit of gaining ground for higher end gaming.
