CheddarPlease said: If T239 reports are correct, it looks to be PS4 Pro level in terms of raw processing power, but on par with the 9th gen consoles in terms of RAM and memory speeds (which is a big leg up given loading times being a big selling point for 9th gen) and with the latest bells and whistles from Nvidia like DLSS and real-time raytracing. |
You aren't worried about the series s having 224 gbps memory bandwidth compared to a max of 102 gbps for the t239?
Also where are you getting loading will be just as fast for the switch 2? I'm not aware of anything remotely as fast as M2 storage and there is a zero percent chance the switch 2 uses M2. Way too expensive and way too hot.
The ps5 read speed via M2 is 5,500 mbps, the fastest SD I'm aware of is going to top out at 300 mbps.... not even in the same ballpark. And M2, as mentioned earlier, runs super hot. It requires a heatplate with PC builds.
Storage is my biggest concern for the switch 2. Not sure how carts will handle modern big games from both a size and speed perspective. Rebirth is 150 gb....
I think you are confused with memory bus speeds, which have nothing to do with loading of games. And isn't as important as memory bandwidth. Right now the switch 2 is tracking half the memory bandwidth of the series s and about 1/4 of the ps5. And about 1/6 of a 4070 and about 1/10 of a 4090.
