Title: Optimistic Nintendo Switch 2 specs leak puts forward huge CPU and GPU changes that would render Tegra T239 obsolete
Post by: Redaktion on September 09, 2023, 02:52:29
The Nintendo Switch 2 specs could be greater than previously imagined if a new leak from a well-known tech YouTuber ends up being accurate. Apparently, the CPU and GPU components of the Switch 2 SoC might be considerably beefed-up by Nvidia, with the Tegra T239 chip now potentially past its best before date.

Cortex A4??


Typo. Fixed, thanks. (Ed.)

Orin is 2018 chip xd?

It was released/available few month ago, while some models are still not available. .. Dont spread such info heh



Reworded "released" to "announced". Thanks. (Ed.)

You forgot to mention that the Tegra X1 was obsolete before it ever launched. By the time the X1 launched, big.LITTLE was already the standard & X1 only has 4 cores. X1 is also not power efficient, that is why it was not really used in any thing other than a Pixel tablet & Nvidia Shield TV. Had the Switch used modern ARM tech when it launched, it would not struggle to maintain 30fps in games running at less than 640p when docked & would have longer battery life.

0 confidence actually... 8 x A78E + Ampere uArch is a big leap already.

 Nintendo wanna play safe, so as not to make the console too expensive.

I find it difficult to believe... not because the intent, but the configuration.

Cortex X4 is meant to provide high single-threaded performance.

In multi-treaded sustained workload, appropriate to thermal and power restrictions, the X4 is expected to work not a peak capacity, and to more evenly distribute the power use between cores.

This leaves that proposed configuration as suboptimal. The "small-cores" A500-class can barely do a lift relevant to video games, mostly can see OS and I/O related task in background.

It makes more sense the 8-core A78 rumour, or either a 8-core A720 or 8-core X2/X3 but running at a lower clock speed.

I don't expect the Switch 2 to rely on a Quad-Core "Big Cluster" design, that's appropriate for a tablet, but not for a console design anymore.

It's extremely unlikely for the unknown chip to have PS5 performance due to thermal and power constraints. To suggest it could possibly match desktop console hardware is silly at best.

> MediaTek
Yeah lol this isn't gonna be powerful at all 💀 a 3.8GHz mediatek cpu clock is equivalent to 3 or less on Qualcomm very easily 💀

Minor SOC design differences aside, a mediatek chip with cortex X4s on a modern process node will perform more or less the same as a Qualcomm chip with cortex X4s. The X4 is ARM's core design, Qualcomm does design its own kryo cores, but hasn't been using them recently, you would certainly expect a difference in performance then as the microarchitecture is slightly different despite still using the ARM ISA. A mediatek A78 is exactly the same as a Qualcomm one, they just buy the design, fit it into an SOC and fab it. They might not meet the same clock speeds if they are on different process nodes, but they will be identical in IPC as it's the same core.

This is pure BS. RedGamingTech has spread numerous rumors that never materialized. The only thing of value he has ever leaked was the Infinity Cache in AMD GPUs, everything else is fake.

LOL.. If it is true then it is still underpowered anyway. I will skip it!

Looks at your sources. Red gaming tech, claims univNintendo as a source, but univNintendo claims Eurogamer was their source, however when you look at it Eurogamer is sourcing Digital Foundry podcast but DF never claimed to have knowledge of which dlss was being used, they simply made a guess because they felt there was no need for frame generation on the switch 2.

So basically it's all speculation by everyone here. None of them have any actual sources or leaked information.
