Radek said: I think Switch 2 will be getting vast majority of third party games. Of course DLSS will be doing a lot to save image quality, and 12 GB of RAM will be plenty to make sure games don't run out of memory. |
I actually think 12 gb is a bit too low. Steam Deck is 16 gb. Rog Ally X is 24 gb. People point out GPUs that are 8 to 12 gb, but computers also have additional system ram (usually 16-32 gb), and the vram is way higher in memory bandwidth (3050 is 2x what the switch 2 will be + system ram). The series S is often highlighted as being 10 gb, but comparative to the Switch 2, it has literally 2x the memory bandwidth, in a broad/generic/illustrative way the Series S versus Switch 2 is 20 gb versus 12 gb.
I'm rambling a bit, but 12 gb is meh. I am hoping the rumors are wrong and it is 16 gb.
