Qualcomm released a beta Adreno Control Panel for Snapdragon X Elite laptops, letting users adjust game settings for better performance. The new tool works like control panels from NVIDIA and AMD, offering choices for texture filtering, frame rate limits, and other graphics options. Users can create custom profiles for different games and apply them as needed. The most helpful feature might be Video Super Resolution, which acts similar to NVIDIA DLSS or AMD FSR technology.
Current tests show these laptops can run Baldur's Gate 3 at 30 frames per second and Control at 40 frames per second with lowered settings. These results fall short compared to dedicated graphics cards from other companies. Qualcomm seems committed to gaming on its platform, with popular titles like Fortnite coming soon. The company also lets users update GPU drivers through this panel to maintain performance levels. Gamers should keep realistic expectations about what these integrated chips can handle, despite these new tweaks.
