And last year Jetson Xavier NX was release with 1Tf FP32 64 Tensor cores 384 volta cores at 399USD, this is basically a cheaper Jetson AGX and interesdly it has NX in the name, which is the Nintendo Switch code name.
See you at the pre-order battlefields.

I find it incredibly hard to believe those are the likely final spec ranges. If they mean a performance increase comparable to what each provided over the base platforms, maybe.Thats a pretty big jump. Hard to believe, if is true so the current Switch will be kicked years behind. Don't make much sense, besides between all the manufactures the Nvidia is the more greedy, IDK what Nvidia would ask for Nintendo, but will be a hell expensive.
IMO is more easy to believe Switch PRO will be a base PS4/Xbox One. Both between 1080p/900p while docked and mobile will be native 720p. All games while mobile will be native 720p with an OLED bigger screen.
A base PS4 Switch witch DLSS would be perfect.
Scalpers are literally salivating right now.
*Rubs hands excitedly*
I held off on buying a Switch cause I was salty that BOTW lost Wii U features to give parity to the Switch version.
If this launches with BOTW2 I am there day one (if I can get one!).

Redditor has kindly provided a TL-DR
- They reiterate a holiday launch in 2021
- Hardware sales will either remain flat or grow slightly due to revision.
- Higher expectations are placed on the Switch Pro (that's what it's referred to in the article) than the PS4 PRO which sold 2M launch window.
- Launch quarter (Sep-Dec) could reach up to 12M units sold.
- According to the hardware forecast they speculate that the MSRP could be higher for the revision upwards of 20%
- Zelda is a strong launch game candidate with several round out titles to accompany it.

XBOX One X performance on a buffed Switch in 2021 that isn't sold as a Switch 2? Sounds like bullshit.
I'm new to Nintendo. Do any of their previous new hardware consoles have any issues within the first year? Still holding off for a newer sku PS5 fixing the coil whine, blu-ray disc noise, and controller trigger issues.

Happens to everything, even books. It's an unfortunate reality now. I'm a huge older/rare book collector and there is always one of a series that is impossible to get due to a few grabbing them and marking prices way up. It's infuriating.At this point unless companies take some measures (no idea what), any popular consumer product is and will always be scooped up by scalper bots.
Look at what happened to concert and sports tickets.

Yeah, right.The performance of this revision is expected to be in line with the PS4 PRO and XBOX One X.
Switch is a 700GFLOPS on desktop mode, and almost half on portable mode. And those numbers really are using 16 bit calculations, so the really to compare with other consoles you would get even the half of that.
No way they get 2-3TFLOPS.
If it really is planned to sell 12 million this holiday, then this sounds like it replaces the current hybrid model. Whichever way its going to be insteresting!#
Ah yes that make more sense, so it'll be something like:I think they meant to say that as a family, the Switch (Lite, Switch and Pro will sell 12 million for that 1st quarter that the Pro will be available. The Pro is rumored to cost 20% more, so the cheaper Switches will still sell the most.
Actually they could. Remember the Switch's Tegra X1 is based on tech from 2014. It uses the same Maxwell CUDA cores that are used in the Geforce 700 line (essentially equal to a Geforce GT 750). It only has 256 CUDA cores that is underclocked at 460MHz at the HIGHEST. If rumors are true then nVidia has just stopped producing those Maxwell chips.
The newest version of the Tegra line, Orin, is using 7nm Ampere chips, rumored to have 2048 CUDA cores (yes I know it's not MEANT to run games but it works as an example for what can be placed onto a low powered mobile device). Running at just 800MHz, it would put out 3.2TFs. Not saying this is on the table, just pointing out it's possible.
ROTFL I don't think this is possible, not even Apple is at PS4 Pro level yet with their mobile arm chips.Source (requires terminal): https://blinks.bloomberg.com/news/stories/QQ3195T1UM16

With DLSS it could be PS4 Pro in terms of performance even if it isn't PS4 Pro in terms of power. We know Nintendo and Nvidia are close and this seems like the type of money-saving and battery-saving technology that Nintendo would love.ROTFL I don't think this is possible, not even Apple is at PS4 Pro level yet with their mobile arm chips.
1.3 TFlops of volta arch would pretty much put it around base PS4 (if not better) + DLSS/RT.Lol the current Xavier is 1.3 TFLOPS at 30w. Switch is going to need reduce to 5w at max. 1Tflop would be surprising to me on a Switch.
If it really has DLSS it'll look great.But will it look like shit on a 4k TV
- Zelda is a strong launch game candidate
Orin is being produced on both 8nm and 5nm; (because 5nm isn't approved for self-riving vehicles yet)I find that hard to believe on the Switch being almost on par with the PS4 Pro/One X. Unless the they finally use the Patent SCD they made back in 2017 where the dock would output the higher performance. Other than that I don’t see it. I could see it on par with the PS4 or Xbox One.
If it has an IGZO tft panel, that would allow in twice the amount of light, and make the screen appear to be 1080p.This does not seem like any other rumor. This has been floating for a couple of months and the timing makes sense. I'll be surprised not to see this release in the holiday season with a Zelda game.
I works have liked to see a 1080p panel, but in handheld mode it's not big deal if it really increases performance. I'm pretty excited for this.
