Err, the new chip delivers 2x the performance at 15W. "NVIDIA says the Jetson TX2 can either offer twice the performance of the older model… or twice the power efficiency." So we'd likely get games at locked 1080p in docked. |
ok, my point still stands. I retract my previous quote of this comment. You still will likely have a hotter, less reliable and more expensive solution or a lower heat, less reliable and more expensive solution. Meaning it still makes more sense to keep the tweaked X1 which has had years to improve production at a lower cost considering you wouldn't have gotten any performance improvement.
That means you have a choice of:
- Running the Jetson TX2 at 7.5 watts and offering performance that’s on par with its 10W predecessor
- Running at 15W for 2X the performance
