I could be wrong but won't clock speeds determine the memory bandwidth?  122 gb/s is the max and if the chipset is underclocked it could be a good amount less.  The switch was underclocked by a good amount.  

I guess basically I'm waiting for confirmation via Nintendo before making too many assumptions.  

From what I'm understanding, it seems like the Switch 2 will be getting some heavy cooling in docked mode, and they will clock it. Once in portable mode they will throttle down the clock and features. I think bandwidth and clock speed ultimately combine to get throughput, but are not necessarily where one determines the other. But I'd assume that when a manufacturer designs an architecture, they will consider both one factored against the other. Take it with a grain of salt I'm not that good in hardware.

Given the Switch 2's hybrid nature, and with the speculated fans, I would say it will have high bandwidth and high clock speed when docked, and high bandwidth and lower clock speed when portable in a more significant way than with the Switch 1. It gives hope that the docked mode will be satisfying when displayed on a large screen at high resolution.

A fan in the dock would indicate they might be letting the system go full tilt or close in docked mode. Otherwise the internal fan the system already has should be good enough, even the OG 20nm Switch system is in no danger of overheating even when overclocked to its full max.
