I see, thanks. So when is 7nm fab expected to be up and running? And if Xavier is a 50% increase over the X2 in power and X2 is 50% stronger than the X1, would we be talking about 2.25 times the performance of the X1 in a mobile configuration? And would the claimed 127GB/s of bandwidth be viable in a mobile version, or would that have to be dialled back? |
7nm fabs are up and running now, nVidia just needs to work with TSMC and bring the design over. (Not as simple as it sounds sadly.)
Yeah. Easy doubling in performance with lowered clocks+voltages+binning over the X1 at the same TDP.
On the bandwidth front, I would assume Nintendo would make a few cut backs there, Half of 137GB/s is still a respectable 68.5GB/s of bandwidth, which is still a substantial increase over the current Switch.
