The T239 is based off of the T234 chip, which is the Jetson AGX. The leak says that it has 12 SM's. Ampere includes 128 CUDA cores per SM, so T239 will have 1536 CUDA cores. This doesn't match up with any of the Orin modules released, which means there is more customization than what we found with the Switch. In addition, T239 has an 8-core CPU on a single cluster which means it CANNOT be the first three anyway.
That said, this doesn't mean that Switch 2 will have 32GB of RAM. As you can see, despite being based on T234 it does not have the same amount of SM's (likely for die reduction). In addition, since it has 8-cores on a single cluster instead of 4-cores on two or three clusters we see further customization (again likely for die reduction). It's very possible, in fact practically guaranteed, that Nintendo will opt to customize the amount of RAM that is used as well. I would not be surprised if we see something like 10GB of RAM with 2GB reserved for OS functionality (kind of like the Series S).
Basically, I think people are underestimating the partnership between Nvidia and Nintendo this time around.
