The Traktor speculation about the additional docks with GPUs is impossible, all external GPU docks you see around use Thunderbolt 3, which is based off USB-C but is improved and faster, it's 40gbps compared to 10gbps, and the Switch won't be using Thunderbolt, IIRC the nVidia tech isn't compatible with Thunderbolt anyways, so that's a no go.

Now OP's in the ballpark but he doesn't specify his calculations, here's one on Reddit that does a better job of explaining this type of performance;

We'll probably be seeing closer 750 GFLOPS though (as the P1 can do that max), but time will tell. This is using a die shrink of Maxwell and not full on Pascal for a "worst" case scenario.

Honestly thats not a worst case, thats more like a best case.

Eurogamer says the dev kits are 400 Gflops.

If nintendo somehow doubled the power for the final product vs the dev kit, thats a "best case" scenario.

I still think OP is wrong.

And even if he was right about it being 700 gflops, that is still only HALF of a xbox one slim (not 70%).

Then factor in less memory, slower memory bandwidth, ect and its probably less than that.
