Here’s a list of all the apps that can run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite – sadly AutoCAD and our favorite VPN provider are missing

Snapdragon X Elite is Qualcomm’s powerful Arm-based processor, specially tuned for Copilot+ PCs. It excels in AI, thanks to a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that can process up to 45 trillion operations per second, allowing it to efficiently process language models and generative AI tasks locally on the device.

One challenge with Windows on Arm processors like the Snapdragon X Elite is that most Windows apps aren’t built to run on Arm systems out of the box. Instead, Windows uses a translation layer to emulate the x86_64 architecture.
