The graphics processor is designed to work with the company's latest Cortex-A15 CPU. Both processors have coherent hardware caches and interfaces to provide a performance advantage and reduction in power consumption.

When built inside a chip, the Mali-T604 will consume less than 850 milliwatts.

The Mali T604 will be compatible with Microsoft's DirectX 11 and OpenCL 1.1, which are competing programming frameworks for parallel task execution.

ARM makes CPUs that go into most of the world's smartphones. The company licenses its processor designs to chip manufacturers such as Samsung, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments and other companies.

ARM announced the Cortex-A15 CPU in September. The A15, which is designed for devices ranging from smartphones to servers, could scale up in performance with up to 16 cores, with each CPU running at 2.5GHz.
