| Soundwave said: I still wonder if a Tegra X2 can match up with an older Nvidia mobile GPU ... like lets take the Nvidia 830M from 2014: This is a laptop GPU, Nvidia 830M specs: DDR3 RAM (64-bit memory bus), 14.4GB/sec 256 CUDA Cores, 16 TMUs, 8 ROPs Maxwell Architecture, 28nm 554 GFLOPS floating point performance 17.31 Gigatexels/second 8.66 Gpixels/second Under 25 watts power usage
The Tegra X1/X2 (custom Nintendo chip?) LPDDR4 RAM (128-bit memory bus?) 51GB/sec 256 CUDA Cores, 16 TMUs, 16 ROPs Pascal Architecture (?), 16nm FinFET 625 GFLOPS floating point performance (Tegra X2 supposed performance) 16 Gigatexels/second (Tegra X1, X2 could be better) 16 Gpixels/second (Tegra X1, X2 might be better) A Nvidia 830M is capable of running a lot of PS4/XB1 ports even at pretty decent resolutions ... Batman Arkham Knight 1366x768 resolution; 30 frames per second (PS4/XB1 only title): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQxNpEaCsiw Assassin's Creed Unity: 1360x768 resolution (PS4/XB1 only game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oOa66_FIHM Star Wars: Battlefront: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MG5d2N73U4 I mean in portable mode these games wouldn't really even have to run at this high of a resolution, 1024x600 or even 960x540 would be good enough for a little 6-inch display. I hope Nintendo really pushes this Nvidia tech, though I half suspect they'll just kinda settle for so so performance. |
I think it's possible Nvidia will change the 1:1 ratio of the TMU's and ROP's that's on the X1 for X2.
