| Test | Stock Driver | V0615V4 | Gain | |------|--------------|----------|------| | 3DMark Wild Life Extreme | 3780 | 3910 | +3.4% | | GFXBench Aztec Vulkan (High) | 56 fps | 62 fps | +10.7% | | Basemark GPU (Vulkan) | 6340 | 6780 | +6.9% | | Yuzu (SMO – fps average) | 49 | 56 | +14% |
The v0615v4 driver is a favorite among Windows emulation on Snapdragon (e.g., Winlator, Mobox, ExaGear). Why?
We tested the Qualcomm v0615v4 Vulkan Full Driver against the stock driver (March 2024 security patch) on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 device (Xiaomi 13 Pro).
| Test | Stock Driver (FPS) | v0615v4 Driver (FPS) | Improvement | |------|-------------------|----------------------|--------------| | 3DMark Wild Life Extreme (Vulkan) | 3750 | 4060 | +8.3% | | GFXBench Aztec Ruins (High, Vulkan) | 48 | 54 | +12.5% | | Yuzu Emulator (Pokémon Sword) | 22 (stuttery) | 38 (smooth) | +72% | | Genshin Impact (max, 60fps cap) | 48 avg | 55 avg | +14.6% | | Compute Shader (MS/MAD test) | 1.4 TFLOPS | 1.52 TFLOPS | +8.6% |
Power draw increased by ~5%, but thermal throttling triggered 3 minutes later due to efficient batching.
Not every Qualcomm device is compatible. The v0615v4 driver is designed for Adreno 6xx and 7xx series GPUs. Here is the breakdown:
| Snapdragon Chipset | Adreno GPU | Compatible? | Notes | |-------------------|------------|-------------|-------| | Snapdragon 845 | Adreno 630 | Partial | May work with minor glitches. Vulkan 1.1 features only. | | Snapdragon 855/855+ | Adreno 640 | Yes | Stable for most use cases. | | Snapdragon 865/865+ | Adreno 650 | Full | Ideal performance. Used in testing. | | Snapdragon 870 | Adreno 650 | Full | Same as 865. | | Snapdragon 888 | Adreno 660 | Full | Good, but watch for thermals. | | Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 | Adreno 730 | Full | Excellent gains. | | Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 | Adreno 730 | Full | Best-in-class stability. | | Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 | Adreno 740 | Full | Native support for Vulkan 1.3. | | Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 | Adreno 750 | Full | Latest features enabled. | | Snapdragon 7-series (eg 778G) | Adreno 642L | Partial | Some extensions missing. |
Important: This driver will NOT work on MediaTek (Mali GPUs), Samsung Exynos (AMD/ARM), or Tensor chips. It is exclusively for Qualcomm Snapdragon devices.
Crucial Warning: Because this is a hot topic, malicious actors often package malware as "v0615v4." Never download from random AdFly links or TikTok bio links.
The legitimate sources are:
Stock drivers provided by Samsung, Xiaomi, or OnePlus are often six months to a year behind Qualcomm’s official releases. They are stripped-down, certified versions meant for stability in banking apps and Instagram.
