I'm certain it's gonna be 8nm but good luck. i read enough and use common sense to know that 8nm is 99% happening. what do you think the odds are for 5nm 50%?

If it is a T239, I am almost certain it is going to be something other than 8nm. 

For the very good reasons presented by those with the computer engineering knowledge. 

It comes down to this: why would Nintendo and Nvidia go with 12SM if 6SM or 4SM would be cheaper and provide better performance? 

But we know the T239 is 12SM from the leak. 

So either the Switch 2 will consume a lot more power than we think, or they are using a different node. 

I'd give it an 80% chance it is the latter and a 20% chance it is the prior.

The fact that you are 99% certain about something you have very little domain knowledge of should give you pause. 

Not really just not common sense. I been hearing people like you with domain knowledge be dead wrong about Nintendo hardware for generations. always over hyping the hardware by magnitudes and ignoring common sense. i can almost guarantee you were one of those that kept hyping fp16 saying ti would match xbox one and ignoring that it was a moile device that had to be down clocked. what about when wii u  had inferior ports well common sense would tell you if the GPU was 2x more powerful then 360 on newer architecture it would run games better nope they kept on arguing   till a developer leaked the specs.
