The Switch is using Maxwell at 20nm Planar. It's old and out-dated.
It's almost two Tegra generations old now.

Huh? They don't even have a consumer variation of the X2 yet o_O; Though it would have been nice for them to use it for the Switch Here is hoping for a Switch+ soon lol. It would be nice to have a Xavier type once the cost gets lower but I doubt it since it's Nintendo and they will just go with X2 or something.

The X2 has been available for OEMs since last year.

Tegra Volta has been demonstrated in Cars as recently as January, so final Silicon isn't far away for that either.

It also looks like background processing is also used for wifi and possible other processing so that has an effect to. Maybe extensive use of wifi will effect frame rates on  games with network features.

Partially right. Wifi does use CPU resources, albeit not allot. We need proper answers on what is going on with that issue before we can make a proper analysis.
