Didn't hear a lot about XeSS 2, what's the difference to XeSS?

Nintendo Switch 2 confirmed to feature NVIDIA T239 SoC with 1536 CUDA Ampere GPU

https://videocardz.com/newz/nintendo-switch-2-confirmed-to-feature-nvidia-t239-soc-with-1536-cuda-ampere-gpu

Kopite with his insider knowledge continues to be correct

So the GPU probably compares best to a 3050 Mobile GPU or MX570 (both have 2048 Cuda Cores, NVidia didn't release any GPU with less on PC) with lower clock speeds and less cores but potentially more bandwidth (especially compared to the MX).

On the CPU side, the Cortex A78 is getting old (from 2020 and the last ARM V8 chip), so I think it best compares to a downclocked 4700U (Zen 2, also had 8c/8t, but a 2Ghz base clock)

AMD’s Unreleased Radeon RX 7300 Gets Support In AIDA64: Is AMD Preparing To Launch Entry-Level RDNA 3 GPUs?

https://wccftech.com/amds-unreleased-radeon-rx-7300-gets-support-in-aida64/

I was digging a bit to see what AMD did before here and the RX 6300 is a 12CU GPU on a PCIe x4 connector. AMD is probably selling those just to companies who want some redundancy or disable to iGPU entirely. But considering where APUs are right now, 16CU should be the minimum now.

AMD’s Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB/16GB GPU Models Surface Up at Retail Listings; Revealing Multiple ASUS Variants

AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE Launched And Tested: On Par With RX 7900 GRE And Slightly Slower Than GeForce RTX 5070

Looks like AMD is ramping up for the release of the 9060XT. Hopefully they'll have enough supply at launch.

As for the 9070GRE, if that one ever comes to the rest of the world, the MSRP should be around $450. At that price, the 5070 would be overpriced for the performance and the 5060Ti thoroughly beaten.

Intel Arrow Lake CPUs See Significant Price Cuts Officially, Core Ultra 7 265KF Drops Down To $284

https://wccftech.com/intel-arrow-lake-cpus-significant-price-cuts-core-ultra-7-265kf-drops-284-usd/

Intel is now slowly turning into the budget option AMD was during it's Bulldozer years.

But the price cut was also really necessary, I could get a Ryzen 7 7700 tray for 299€, the Ultra 7 265KF is just making itself competitive to that price now.
