Njengoba bekulindelekile, i-Apple iyaqhubeka nokwenza ngcono amaprosesa ayo unyaka nonyaka. Kulo nyaka, lokho kuthuthukiswa kuqashelwe ikakhulukazi esifundeni se- Iprosesa ye-iPad Pro, a A9X ukuthi, ngaphezu kokuba ishesha kakhulu futhi inamandla, inamandla amakhulu kangangokuba idlula leyo esetshenziswa amakhompyutha amaningi ene-Intel processor, ibuye ifake ne umsebenzi omkhulu wokuklama. Usayizi wayo, omkhulu kakhulu kune-A9 esetshenziswa yi-iPhone 6s kanye ne-iPhone 6s Plus, noma ngabe yenziwe yiTSMC noma iSamsung, kuyinto esizayo, kunjalo.
I-A9X ine- 40% usayizi omkhulu ukwedlula leyo ye-iPhone 6s ne-iPhone 6s Plus, into engenzeka ngenxa yobungako obungeziwe be-iPad Pro namabhethri amancane (maqondana) kunalawo okufanele ayithwale, into edumazile lapho ubheka imininingwane yethebhulethi, yize kuyiqiniso futhi ukuthi akukabi khona izindaba zabasebenzisi abakhononda ngokuzimela okuphansi kwethebhulethi yobuchwepheshe yenkampani eqondiswa nguTim Cook.
Ngaphezu kosayizi, i-A9X ine- Dual core CPU futhi a I-12-cluster GPU. Ama-cores amabili we-CPU, njengoba u-Chipworks 'uDick James esitshela, angabonakala esigcawini esiluhlaza futhi ukholelwa ukuthi esigcawini ngasinye esiluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kunamaqoqo amabili we-GPU, okwenza ingqikithi yama-12 ashiwo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-A9X ayinayo i-8MB yenqolobane i-A9 yama-iPhone 6s kanye ne-iPhone 6s Plus abanayo, okuthile okusacabanga ukuthi kungaba yini isizathu sokungabikho.
Amandla, ukusebenza kahle kanye nomsebenzi omuhle wokuklama we-A9X kusenza sicabange ukuthi esikhathini esizayo esingekude kakhulu, amakhompyutha akwa-Apple azophinda asebenzise amaprosesa awo. Cishe, azokwenziwa yi-Intel kulelo kusasa elizayo, kepha kuzoba yi-Apple ebaklama eCalifornia, njengoba sikwazi ukufunda ngemuva kwanoma iyiphi i-iPhone.
