Then it could explain the weird fps drops in Zelda out of nowhere.
No, the Switch doesn't throttle and the FPS drops are reproducible in specific moments

What does this mean 3rd-Party games wise?
I think the Nvidia Shield tablet is K1..Was talking about the shield tablet.
Do we know the process node? The Shield consumes way more power than Switch while gaming, maybe that is the change. It wouldn't know any different from a top die shot perspective...Looks like you are missing some information. Here you go:

Was talking about the shield tablet.
Probably because it's not ready. The 2017 NVIDIA Shield is still using the X1.What's the reason for not going with Pascal? I'm genuinely interested in an explanation.
Absolutely disgusting. Nintendo really couldn't go for the TX2 to make the Switch not an underpowered piece of trash?
And I'm saying this as a Switch owner. I hope this bombs like the WiiU all over again. Nintendo just can't learn their lesson.
Funny how none of this matters to me anymore since I've gotten the system and have played over 50 hours on it. The system so far covers all my problems with the Wii U and the 3DS, I couldn't be happier at the moment.
Also are stock Tegra X1s suddenly free just because gaf is melting down about them?-The touch screen
-RAM
-Two Joy-Cons
-Dock
-Joy-Con Grip
-Micro SD reader
-Wi-Fi board
-Cartridge reader port
ETC ETC ETC
I mean, come on guys, the retail price is not ONLY for the fucking chip. :lol
Shield Tablet is the K1 version (X1 is twice as fast).
What Shield Tablet? Because Shield Android TV uses X1.The Shield Tablet that has a K1, 2GB RAM and 16GB of internal storage?
* SoC: Tegra X1
* * CPU: 2.0 GHz 4 ARM Cortex-A57 and 4 ARM Cortex-A53 64-bit cores
* * GPU: 1000 MHz Maxwell (core configuration: 256:16:16)
* RAM: 3 GB RAM
* Internal Storage: 16 GB SSD, or 500 GB HDD(pro version)[4]
* External Storage: micro SDXC slot
* Gigabit Ethernet
* HDMI 2.0 port
* micro USB 2.0 port
* USB 3.0 ports x2: for mouse, keyboard and external hard drives
* IR Receiver: for TV remote
* 802.11ac 2x2 MIMO 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, compatible with 802.11g/n WiFi
* Bluetooth 4.1/BLE: for headsets, other game controllers, etc.
Then why is the Switch $300 USD? What an embarrassing day to be a Nintendo fan...
I think the Nvidia Shield tablet is K1..
So basically Wii U Plus in terms of graphical output; not a generational leap which is pretty disappointing. That chip will be showing it's age by 2020 at the latest.

I mean,there is not much they could do without significantly increasing the cost with this concept. The Switch its still impressive from Nintendo and what it isYeah and a whole lot of great games won't come because of what it's running on
Can wait to see images of that tablet... I am waiting.You're right, the Shield has a better screen and better storage.

So Switch in handheld mode is basically the same jump from WiiU as GC -> Wii?

I think they are disabled. It's so stupid to literally buy on the shelf parts and claim to spend years designing the system lol. It's a lot less customized than MS's or Sony's systems. A positive thing is that games will be easy to emulated on PC and other ARM processors in the near future. I would say in the next year or so we will be seeing working emulators. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if someone manages to clone a Switch into a shield tablet.
Cynicism. Of COURSE nVidia would make shit up when haven't they?Ehh... I would feel the same. Nvidia said themselves its a customized Tegra, which is not the case and this is revealed after launch day so some people didn't even knew what they bought. This is misleading advertising. It is no joke. My question: How can you NOT be outrageous about this?!
No. Should be quite a bit more than thatSo Switch in handheld mode is basically the same jump from WiiU as GC -> Wii?
For 10 times... The Shield tablet uses Tegra K1 not X1...For reference, the Shield tablet with bundled controller is 300+ on amazon.
X2 is the commercial name for Tegra Parker.Has Nvidia even announced the X2?
I feel this. It's way better than I had imagined it would be and having portable BOTW Is a game changer.Funny how none of this matters to me anymore since I've gotten the system and have played over 50 hours on it. The system so far covers all my problems with the Wii U and the 3DS, I couldn't be happier at the moment.

Good to hear you are immune to the problem most people had with nintendo consoles recently (library and release calendar with gaping holes thanks to abysmal western third party support). They're in the clear now.Funny how none of this matters to me anymore since I've gotten the system and have played over 50 hours on it.

The operating assumption right now is that Switch OS is an android fork like Fire OS on the Kindle, right?
The product that's called the Shield Tablet, that's what...

Exactly. The fact that NVidia couldn't get the X2 in their own product in 2017 should say everything that needs to be said about the matter.

You known your quote talks list everything but hardware ? Or you half read it ?"But creating a device so fun required some serious engineering. The development encompassed 500 man-years of effort across every facet of creating a new gaming platform: algorithms, computer architecture, system design, system software, APIs, game engines and peripherals. They all had to be rethought and redesigned for Nintendo to deliver the best experience for gamers, whether theyre in the living room or on the move."
