Qualcomm's CEO, Cristiano Amon has doubled down on his keynote statement about the proliferation of the Snapdragon X Elite CPUs across "every PC form factor" and has even gone as far as to say that includes desktop. I've still not been able to get any firm answer on whether that includes the sort of desktops we're traditionally talking about on PC Gamer, but I've seen things in the existing X Elite BIOS that suggests they're ready to get up and running with discrete graphics cards.
Whether that particular element ever comes into play in a gaming laptop with an attached graphics card from AMD, Nvidia, or Intel, or indeed a proper desktop version of the Qualcomm PC platform, we can't say for sure. But it's clear this is just the start of Qualcomm's plans for PC and that definitely includes spreading beyond just the thin-and-light range of laptops we've seen today.
