- ValdikSS 12d ago? Even Steam Deck has a custom APU made specifically for it. Call it "customized" if you don't like "custom".
- SahAssar 12d agoThe steam decks APU was designed for Magic Leap 2. It is one of the worst examples you could choose for a chip specifically designed for the thing it is in.
- izacus 12d agoNo, they mean customized SoCs which what those chips are as well
- SahAssar 12d agoSo "run on a custom silicon" should not mean anything "custom" in regards to architecture or ISA or even microarchitecture? If that is true then a lot (or most) of android phones run on "custom silicon" and the term is meaningless.
