The Tegra T239 is the processor the Switch 2 and all the Switch 2 components have their own product code prefix distinct from the Switch 1 at the production level. You think a manufacturing facility that has millions of different components doesn't meticulously label what each component is and for what product it's for? lol. They track every component right down to literally every screw because we can even see a huge surge in the screws and tape for Switch 2, lol. The clock speed is irrelevant to this discussion.
We also see Nintendo's Vietnam facility is taking delivery of tens of thousands (well even more than that) of Switch 2 LCD displays and other major Switch 2 components you would need. In June 2024 they were only receiving about 1100 of the screen, it has increased by 60x+ for August and has gone up even further afterwards.
I dunno, but that looks to me like a ramp up for production.
People also need to understand the difference between "rumor", as in a story ran on a gaming site or forum and "leak". These are two different things, a rumor anyone can make up, leaks like the Nvidia hack and shipping/customs manifests are things that not just made up, they are things perhaps that are not supposed to be shared with the public that end up leaking out. Rumors and "leaks" are not necessarily the same thing.
Mass production has likely not begun as of August 2024 because we don't see shipments out from HVBG, but it looks like mass production is about to begin. Which is significant, if they are beginning mass production or even trial production this year, then the release date is probably not as far off as some people have been speculating.
