I'm confused as to why would Nintendo do something like this for "just" a Pro model of the Switch.

Since there's no way the chip powering this new console will be able to render games at native 4K, it's obvious that it will need to use DLSS to achieve that, but in order to do that you need Tensor Cores. Neither the Tegra X1 nor the X2 feature such cores, they were introduced with Volta that powers the Tegra Xavier, a much bigger and powerful Tegra chip designed for AI.

But why would Nintendo waste this incredible jump in performance in a Pro model when it makes more sense for a Switch successor?


Doubt there is DLSS. I would assume just a rudimentary upscale.

The DLSS part comes from another rumor, an "insider" (I really have no clue on how reliable he is) from Resetera.
