If it is running The Matrix Awakens demo ... then yes I would guess we're looking at 2-3 tflops docked. 

Perhaps the Tegra T239 is clocked higher than the Tegra X1 in the Switch was, the Tegra X1 was initially on a very poor 20nm node that ran too hot, but from my understanding something like 5nm production is a lot better, so that can be another area where the Switch 2 benefits in a way the Switch 1 could not. They had to aggressively downclock the Tegra X1, Nvidia was still new to making mobile chips of that nature at the time, it's entirely possible in the 8-9 years that they have learned a few things and maybe a process like 5nm is simply just better than 20nm which not many companies ended up using. 

The newest rumor is that it has 12GB of unified memory.

There seems to be a subset of users on this forum who cling to buzzwords and run with it without actually understanding what it is or even what it means.

We saw it with the Cell.

We saw it with GDDR5.

We saw it with the ACE units.

We saw it with the PS5's SSD.

We saw it with the WiiU's eDRAM.

We saw it with the Xbox One's eSRAM and the Power of the Cloud.

We literally see it with every single console that gets released. - What does it amount to in the end? Stuff all.

When will people stop falling for it?

We have no idea how the Switch 2's Tegra will stack up against the 3050. It could be multiples cut down and thus worst.

Thanks for the video. If you watch it full screen on a decent display it looks absolutely shocking. Extremely blurry and undefined.

There simply isn't enough data to infer a clean and sharp image from 480P to 1440P/4k.

And I would expect it to look better than other native 360P-540P games on Switch, considering how far less powerful that is, but that doesn't mean 480P DLSS looks "good" by any stretch of the imagination... Native 1080P PS4 looks far cleaner.

May be "playable" for you, but I have better standards it seems.

When moving there is less temporal data to draw from, so the image quality actually degrades, hence the need for higher base resolutions.

But when you stand still, they are able to accumulate data from similar frames and infer a higher quality output.

I was debating those who were thinking they can just run Switch 2 games at 360P and reconstruct it into a 4k image without any issues.
It doesn't look great in the real world.

Obviously Switch 2 specifications haven't been released.

But a mobile device has lower TDP headroom than a fixed console, so the Series S will always retain an advantage... Especially as time goes on and FSR continues to improve.

Intel has made it platform agnostic. I think the only hard requirement is INT4 support and DP4a when XMX instructions are not available.

I doubt it will ever see wide adoption.

FSR 3.0 is rolling out currently and that brings with it a plethora of improvements that will benefit the Series S.

...Ryzen seems to be doing well on that front.

Honestly I would just like a variable refresh rate display in the Switch 2 rather than any fixed arbitrary refresh rate.

That way the display -always- matches the games output, dropped frame? Doesn't matter. You won't notice it.

We can't trust developers to ensure a consistent framerate at 30fps, let-alone 40 or 60fps, let the display make up for that instead.

2-3 Teraflops of what?

RDNA3 where each compute unit is now dual-issue which then introduces contention with resources reducing the performance per-teraflop relative to prior hardware?

Or are you talking about rapid packed math where it's double the teraflop for every single precision teraflop if the instructions are compatible? (Not always compatible, so you never get linear scaling.)

Teraflops truly is a bullshit denominator.

Then Nintendo is likely employing a clamshell memory layout, where 4GB of Ram will operate slower than the 8GB, likely partitioned for the OS/Background tasks, similar to the Series X... Because a 192bit memory bus is a bit much for a cost sensitive mobile chip.

Either way, 12GB isn't unheard of in mobile devices at the moment.

*grabs popcorn*

Where was anyone talking about 360p or 480p before you?

Perhaps they were earlier in the thread, but yeah, I didn't think it was that old news.

Yes, I see that Soundwave wrote 360p or 540p alone at the beginning of the thread, but it was not discussed.
In other words, there was no one else.

Just after my comment to you, Soundwave wrote 360p or 540p again. 

If you had your own knowledge and opinion, you would not have had to concur with Soundwave's estimates.

It was your idea that the next gen Switch would run at 480p and you never answered my question as to how the Series S would run in that case.

And later you admitted that you did not know the specifications of the next generation Switch.

And you don't know the specs, but somehow you seem to have decided that the next gen switches will be powered by 15 W. Seems odd, don't you think?

And I don't understand why you think that next gen SWITCH upscaling doesn't work, but Series S does.

Perhaps it's because the original upscaled resolution of the Series S is 900P or 1080P, while the next-gen switches are supposed to be 360P or 480P.
In this case, the expected power gap is 4x to 9x.

Series S is rdna2 1280 cores
The next generation switch is assumed to have 1536 amp cores.

Even if the tdp of the switch is 15 W, such a gap will not happen.

And you know there are very few FSR titles on Xbox. Let's also consider that the next gen Switch will sell much better than the Series S.
DLSS support should be much greater than Xbox.

In other words, many multiplat games will support DLSS on the Switch, but not FSR on the Series S.

It's easy to imagine which would perform better in this case.

Speaking of rumored technical specifications, these are the latest leaks I read (alleged Nvidia developer, Linux4Tegra) on the Switch 2 chip.

T239 Drake (custom)
cpu 8x Arm A78C (single cluster)
gpu with 12 SMs, 1536 CUDA cores,
12 RT cores (1x SM), 48 Tensor cores (4x SM),
2.5 tflops (fp32)

I don't believe Pema is claiming xbox scaling is superior. Many are viewing scaling as some sort of exclusive Nintendo major advantage... it isn't. Scaling is available to all console. Sony has been using checkerboarding for quite a long time now.

I would also point out (again) scaling is a tool.  It isn't a hardware switch that just happens.  Meaning scaling benefits are going to be largely driven by the software developers.  

It was mentioned literally multiple times before me. I did quote it and reply to it if you actually bothered to read it.

The fact you then recognized that and still painted me to be the bad guy? What kind of screwed up logic is that?

The

Here is the evidence:

I am a user first.
Not once was my "moderator" status in question, so don't swing such logical fallacies around.

Not once did I mention the wattage of the Switch.
Because like you alluded to "I don't know the specs". - Not sure how you came to this conclusion, perhaps you have gotten confused with another post?

That isn't what I am saying at all.

Upscaling does work. - Games have literally been upscaled for decades.

However I am pointing out that using "data" from "previous frames" to "rebuild a higher resolution image" requires a certain level of "information" to be effective. - The lower your resolution, literally the less information you have to work with.

I have not made any assertions on what resolution the next-gen Switch will be running at and whether upscaling will be effective or not. - Just pointing out some obvious facts as a PC gamer who has used XeSS, FSR and DLSS and experimented with this stuff.

We have no idea what the hardware is. So you cannot make any assertions on what resolution the Switch 2 will run at or what the Power gap will be.

We have no information on what hardware the next-generation Switch is running with.

But it's not JUST about 'cores' or 'teraflops'.

You can have a GPU with more cores, end up slower than one with less.

We have no idea what the TDP of the Switch 2 is.

FSR 2.0 has only been out for about a year.
So of course it's take-up-rate will be limited.

But Starfield showcases the technology.

Buuut... According to IGN, over 110 games support FSR on console.
https://www.ign.com/articles/amds-fsr-20-is-now-available-for-xbox-series-xs-and-xbox-one-developers

Whether that is a significant enough number to you however is up for debate.

The Switch 2 hasn't been released and we are unable to determine if it's going to be successful yet.

It's called that "evidence" thing. That annoying thing that seems to get in your way.

What if Nintendo has another WiiU moment? Food for thought.

Like the evidence I provided prior, there are 110 FSR supported games. (Actually more considering that link/article is now a year old.)

But unlike DLSS... FSR is NOT tied to the Xbox ecosystem.

FSR is on: PC, Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo... There are even Billions of Android devices that support AMD's FSR via Vulkan.

DLSS? Probably not going to have the same kind of mass-market penetration that FSR will achieve due to it's hardware-agnostic nature.

I never asserted that FSR is technically superior to the Switch's DLSS. - Did you even bother to read my posts?
Infact, I stated the opposite that DLSS has the technical edge in visual quality.

Nintendo also gets FSR as well.

But here is the thing... Not all games on the Switch 2 if it had hardware DLSS support, will use DLSS.

Want to know why? Because it's up to the developer. It's a tool.

Some developers may opt to use FSR instead due to ease of porting across different platforms, that's the reality of the situation.

Gee I wonder if every PS5 leak thread had PC enthusiasts coming into it and saying "well dur hur, it won't run at 120 fps, 4K and look just like the master PC version, so lol it doesn't count, only 10.8 teraflops! Ha what a lame piece of hardware,, not even fully RDNA2. I need to come in here and lower your expectations because I'm the fun police".

Like how big of a loser would you have to be to come into every thread about say a different platform and try to shut down discussion. Interesting how it's only Nintendo platforms that have to put up with this. 

Especially funny when like 80% of the crap being said is disproven straight away with simple Youtube searches of people doing things that we're told "nah that can't be done, not possible", "well like here's a video of it y'know like totally actually being done", "well that doesn't count because of new reasons I just invented". lulz.
