It would certainly fit with Nintendo's favorable stance on old hardware. But yeah, it would actually be ridiculous. Pascal is not that new and Maxwell is absically stone age tech. Would be weird even for Nintendo to go that route.
Then again Nintendo only cares about money and I'm sure they'd get those old Tegra chips for cheap.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
what if...
The dev kit is based on maxwell and final product is on pascal?
They are almost the same, for programmers, it soulhd not make any difference.
And the rumors sources would be telling the thruth...about the product they have, the dev kit.
Also, maybe the 3 hours switch batery is with the maxwell dev kit, and the final product may have more time of batery life, because is based on pascal...

Yea but 1 TF? The old Tegra X1 was 500 Gflops. I can understand Maxwell and Tegra X1 but I can't understand Maxwell and 1 TF, specially on a portable device.

Really tired of the rumors or reports, less than a month to know. But tbh after all these months with so many rumors about the hardware i dont care anymore, i just wanna see the games.

I felt this way until the teaser. Now I'm aching for any news again.

Where did you get the 1TFLOPS from?

In the Article
"To give you a sense, we expect the Nintendo Switch to be more than 1 teraflop in performance"
PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850
Going with older, cheaper tech does fit Nintendo's MO for the past 12 years, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if Switch's GPU is a modified Tegra X1.

You didn't read the subtext though. It clearly says: "... and we base this on absolutely nothing because we're a bunch of monkeys." Right there between the lines.
I mean they say this and then they say they don't know if it will be more powerful than X1. Monkeys and typewriters, dude.

Damn, how could I have missed that? Silly me xD
