I'm not super knowledgeable on the Tegra Chips (or much hardware in general honestly lol) so i'm not really the one for you to be asking these questions, but I think a Tegra X2 would put it at least at Xbox One levels of power, if not slightly lower, unless someone correct me if i'm wrong. I just mainly want it to be an X2 because it would make me feel more confident in the Switch being able to keep getting third party ports. The Tegra X1 is a powerful chip on its own, and is still much more powerful than a Wii U at least, but I don't think it's anywhere near the PS4 or Xbox One. At least the Tegra X2 gives the Switch enough amount of power to keep getting third party ports and not be dropped like the Wii U was due to being underpowered.
On Nvidia's website they mention in the announcement that they are providing the hardware in the Switch is that they are using the same architecture that the world's top and most powerful GPU's out right now are using, which I think probably means Pascal, so that's a good sign at least.

Yeah, it's a tough thing. Obviously I want the Switch to get as close to the XBO in power as possible, but I think that a $250 device would demolish a $300 one for them, so if they can't get the X2 in the Switch at $250, I think they hould probably stick with X1.

disagree entirely, 300$ is just not a lot for a system potentially that can be frequently used at home and on the go. People regularly paid almost 200$ for the 3DS.
This does not need to be under 300$ to sell. Hell, a lot of Wii U owners also own the 3DS.
people are being unrealistic. Nintendo has refused to lower the Wii U to much under 300$ and you all think that a much more advanced versatile system at launch will be less than the Wii U? delusional.
and, again, it doesn't need to be. 300$ is a great deal for a portable and home console hybrid assuming the system does what it advertises ( will see more info in that regard in January and beyond)
