Why wouldn't a Switch 2.0 be at least as powerful as the PS4? I mean compare Tegra X1 to Tegra 2 which were released five years apart. The best Tegra 2 chip was about as powerful as the Wii with 7 GFLOPS of performance. At the very least the Switch 2.0 will have more usable ram, a much better CPU, and modern feature sets which outperform the PS4. The GPU will probably be much more capable too. Or are you saying you don't think the Switch 2.0 would be as weak as a PS4? I suspect we will probably get a New Switch like we did New 3DS which will approach the base PS4 in performance some time at the end of its life, capable of playing Switch games at 1080p 60fps. The Switch 2.0 would probably have some new Nvidia tech entirely. |
The Tegra X2 or whatever its called, is supposedly almost twice the performance/watt of the Tegra X1.
So if you made a new "switch" on 16nm (with X2), instead of todays Tegra X1 (20nm), it would be around double the performance (at same power usage).
393 Gflops -> 786 Gflops. *edit: (nvidia themselfs say Tegra X2 at 15watts is 750 Gflops Fp32)
Thats still less than half of the PS4.
Even 5 years from now,.... with a Nvidia Tegra X3? and maybe 7nm, I suspect it ll still be abit weaker than the current PS4.

You totally missed the most important point I made. |
I know nintendo make great games, dispite the graphics of their hardware being weaker.
What Im saying is "what if nintendo didnt have weak hardware?"
