A significant portion of users only put emphasis on the GPU/RAM part while neglecting the CPU side of the Switch 2.

There's a reason why games like Madden NFL 26, Borderlands 4, Sparking Zero and many more upcoming games will run at 30fps (with dips) on Switch 2 even if the resolution and graphical details are reduced compared to PS5/Xbox Series.

That's the same reason why PS4 Pro didn't offered a 60fps option for most of the games compared to base PS4.

Yep the CPU is turning out to be the bottleneck for the Switch 2 in quick ports (which let's be honest, are the majority with mass layoffs industry-wide.) 

I think Nintendo could mitigate this if they somehow free up a reserved CPU core, and fix VRR. Getting games to 40-45fps would make a big difference, even if they can't hit a solid 60fps.
