Wikpedia HAD these numbers a few days ago(they had it for a while) before I copied and pasted them on this forum. Typical VGC crowd (technically savy but high in immaturity) probably edited them out LOL!!! I found a few sources on my own before they get deleted out:
For the GPU: http://3dbrew.org/wiki/Hardware
CPU: http://www.gamespot.com/forums/topic/28802379/interesting-3ds-cpu-info
Many sources already disproved IGN's "OFFICIAL" tech specs especially about the RAM and dual processor CPU. It would cost Nintendo a lot more to have two CPU's running in parallax a la TG16 etc than to have an affordable low cost dual-core CPU in it's system. The ARM11 designation found in the teardown and Nintendo freeing up a second core for devlopers later in the year proves the viable dual-core theory over the more expensive and high energy consumption of a seperate dual processor CPU!!! Besides my 7 year old son's $89 android tablet is running the same ARM11 @1ghz with 1GB of DDR2 SDRAM so it is totally the more credible theory!!! In any case if it turns out to be a dual processor, ARM11 it will make the 3DS that much more superior to the Wii's single core, single CPU comparison. The work will be evenly, spread out between two processors having dual core capability regardless of lower speed. This will also make Vita's CPU less of an issue though RAM, GPU and such is still a factor!!!
