Do you think that at 28nm HPM that a Snapdragon 800 will be able to post those numbers in a phone or a 7-8" tablet?
The Snapdragon 800 will dissipate the same amount of power, regardless of which device a vendor puts it in. But in a smaller device like a 7-8", the left over energy which cannot be dissipated turns into heat. So if you loop the graphics benchmark enough times, it will eventually either burn your hand, or throttle down.
If you run the benchmark once, however, it may be a short enough benchmark to show a high score before heating up and/or throttling down.
Ashraf, I did some more sleuthing for some 3DMark data on Tegra 4, and I finally found a review of the Toshiba Excite Write that includes a 3DMark score.
It measures 11,728, which is quite a bit below what I had expected in my earlier post, which was based on Shield measurements: #msg-90841386
It seems that actual tablet implementations do not get the unconstrained frequencies that nVidia can do on the Shield.
If I were to redraw the tiers, they would be as follows:
Top Tier: 3DMark Icestorm at 15-20+k - Snapdragon 800 - Exynos 5420 - Apple A7X - Haswell "Y" 6W - AMD Temash 8W
Middle Tier: 3DMark Icestorm at 10-15k - Bay Trail (see #msg-88311787) - AMD Temash 3.9W (estimated) - Apple A6X (estimated, not tested under this benchmark) - Tegra 4 (~12k) - Snapdragon 600 / S4 Pro (10-11k) - Exynos 5410 (10k)
