Way to many PCB layers and memory chips to pull off. It would drive prices way to high.
It could be Tonga... But then it doesn't remain in-line with the tweet that said the device was using older tech.
However, AMD's GCN is pretty modular, it would be easy to update a few aspects of the chip.
Roughly 5x the GPU capability, accounting for efficiency gains, in my opinion.
... Those flop numbers are all out of whack and wrong.
If we were to believe Ruby, then you would be wrong. It's not 2.5 Teraflops of single precision.
To calculate flops it is Clock Rate * 2 * Shaders.
Ruby stated the Clock is: 880mhz * 2 * 2048 shaders which is about 3.6 Teraflops. (For all that it's worth.)
So which is it, you either Believe Ruby or you don't? :P

Thank you. Not just for the reply, but for restoring my shattered faith in Nintendo. Even if its a hurtful vicious lie, I will take it. Nintendo making a weak 720p tablet being their secret sauce hurts my soul. Even if this HC is a lie, I'm happy. I'll hold onto this until the truth is revealed and I go get drunk and sob gently into my booze.

I believe in it. The tablet concept as presented by euro simply doesn't make sense, and Nintendo has filed numerous home console patents. There will be a handheld element, but there won't be a handheld pretending be a console. More like the opposite.
