Arm Announces Lumex Platform With C1 CPUs Boasting SME2, Mali G1-Ultra GPU

Arm this evening lifted the lid on Lumex, their new compute subsystem platform that is purpose-built around AI for next-gen PCs and smartphones.

The Arm Lumex platform combines their latest AArch64 CPUs complete with Scalable Matrix Extensions 2 (SME2), the latest GPU IP, and other system IP along with an optimized software stack for a very comprehensive AI-focused platform.

The Arm Lumexp latform features SME2-enabled Armv9.3 CPUs such as the C1 Ultra and C1 Pro, a new C1 Premium lower-tier offering, the new Mali G1-Ultra GPU, the DynamIQ Shared Unit DSU, and deep software integration.

The Arm C1 Ultra CPU aims for +25% single-threaded performance and double-digit IPC gains YoY while below that are the C1 Premium, C1 Pro, and C1 Nano.

A big focus on the media presentation in advance was the guarantee that Arm Lumex will have Scalable Matrix Extensions 2 support widespread. About time seeing more SME hardware in the while and in turn will also help with increased software adoption. Just as AVX-512 and even AMX have proven very useful in the x86_64 ecosystem for AI workloads.

Those are the main Arm Lumex highlights for now. It will be much more interesting once having new Arm hardware in the lab for Linux testing and benchmarking.
