The thing is one of their slides specifically mentions automotive and *gaming* functionality specifically for that CPU config though, so I dunno. 

Probable the chip underclocks in portable mode. 

The chip Nintendo uses may just be a Pascal version of the X1 though since there doesn't seem to be a huge difference in performance from X1 to X2. Maybe by using Pascal architecture and shrinking to 16nm it gives Nintendo enough leeway to run the TX1 level performance at full clock without needing a fan or something. 

I think we also have to keep in mind that there is a high probability that the chip(s) going into the NX is/are most likely custom chips, so while the specs are interesting to look at, they most likely don't match exactly what will be in the NX. I can't wait until we get some official details of the darn thing! Another month or so...jeeeeeeeez

I wanted to wrote that, Nintendo always uses custom chips, in this case most likely custom design of X2.
