But he is not getting it from other sites or Nvidia... He is getting it from his sources which are supposed to give him accurate information...

I'm just saying with several mistakes he already made, that mistaking the 1 TFLOP (FP16 number) is a common mistake to make. Even a lot of tech centric sites get that wrong. 

Again keep in mind too the guy is all over the place in his article. Switch is apparently only good for "cartoony" graphics for one, which I take it he means the system is good enough for minimally intensive games like Nintendo's "cartoony" games but not good enough for more realistic games.

If it's 1 TFLOP (FP32), it would have no problem with XB1/PS4 ports, so that whole reasoning by him doesn't make sense. 

But at this point, what we should be saying is that this article is nonsense instead of giving him benefit of doubt. Because what you are essentially saying is that his sources, for whatever reason, gave him FP16 numbers instead of FP32 which to me sounds like nonsense. Why would a source give the author marketing oriented numbers? I get the author doesn't understand it but the sources don't either?

If he has made this many mistakes, this article isn't reliable source of anything at all. 

Will it be Maxwell? It certainly could be. But is it due to this article being right? I would rather say he has no clue and this article is less valid than most other rumors we have already seen.
