Not necessarily; custom chips are sometimes less powerful than the chip they're based on.

.....  please dont do that Curl-6.

Your saying nintendo could have spent alot of money on R&D, makeing a weaker than normal Tegra X1?

Thats too much... expensive for no reason, and less than 512 Gflops? >_>

Not even nintendo would do something like that.

If its custom its because they wanted more power.... hopefully.

This is right up Nintendo's alley. They would customize to be weaker. They did that with Wii U. If memory serves they downclocked it so that it would run cool.
