I am only shocked by how I shocked I am to hear that Nintendo is foisting an underpowered system on the public again!
IGN is clueless as ever, DLA isn't available on standard Nvidia GPU and DLSS is powered by Tensor cores.
Good for them... Chasing power isn't important for them... I wish Sony would stop too but unfortunately they'd get slaughtered for it.
That and talking out of your ass.
First, DLA is available on Orin APUs:
Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA)
developer.nvidia.com
The T239, which is rumoured to be the Switch 2, is part of the Orin family.
Tegra - Wikipedia
The Orin (as well as the Xavier) can also have Tensor Cores, meaning DLSS is possible.
So, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that the Switch 2, or whatever it's called, could have DLA and DLSS.
DLA isn't available for desktop and mobile GPU, it's only available for automotive and robotics etc.That and talking out of your ass.

DLA is pretty much useless for gaming bullshit and IGN is pretty much clueless like you.
The T239 is rumoured to be based on the T234, which is precisely available for
I don't give two shits about what IGN says, I give even less shits about DLA being useful or useless. I do care about pointing out that you are wrong. And you are. Again.
An embarrassment.

If a SoC component isn’t the bare minimum to run a game, Nintendo will scrap/remove it to cut costs and improve battery life.
Icon has actually represented itself pretty well on this, good work yall:

These pre-release “how powerful is the Nintendo console” discussions are always pointless.
Before the Switch came out you would’ve never have guessed that the latest DOOM would run competently on the system, for example. Obviously no one is anticipating that it will be top of the line. That’s never Nintendo’s m.o.

Have you ever consider that the T239 would be massive cut down, features and specs wise too cut costs.The T239 is rumoured to be based on the T234, which is precisely available forautomotive and roboticsmultiple industries.

New Nintendo handheld is surely at 400-500 US Dollars price range.
DLSS also not magic either, even with DLA. The handheld have to operate with the power budget of below ten watts, and LPDDR5 would hamper CPU performance even further. DLSS could not do jackshit if the CPU is weak.
And there is the mention of possiblity of 10nm, so there is that.
Also unlike Sony, Nintendo yearn for profits from their hardwares. At least 20% of the cost gonna be profit
So much hopium in Nintendo next handheld that gonna be shattered lol.
something similar is going to happen this time when Switch 2 is announced with chopped and screwed versions of Elden Ring and Cyberpunk. the so-called 'impossible port' idea will live on.
the big difference between switch and switch 2 is the steam deck (and friends) exists now. you actually have an affordable option to buy real Cyberpunk AND take it with you, along with your save without double-dipping.
Historically speaking, Nintendo Wii/Wii U/Switch hardware has always been a downgrade from their counterparts elsewhere.
The Tegra X1 chip is actually downclocked compared to the chip present in the NVIDIA Shield and the Pixel C. It also lacks a few Kepler feature sets that the Shield has.

Why are you rambling? Yes, I have considered that the T239 would be cut down, that's almost a given. My comment was not about that, but rather the other lad saying that these cards don't / can't have DLA, when in fact they not only can, they have it by default pretty much.
On what you said
- The power envelope does not need to be below 10 watts. Hell, the original switch is not below, but rather above ten watts, at least on release. [link]
- 10nm makes no sense since the Tegra X2 is 16nm, the Xavier is 12nm, and the Orin is 8nm. The APU is likely Orin based, so it will be 8nm
- Based on power envelope alone, they can go for any of the Orin APUs (with necessary cutbacks) from the Orin NX 16GB all the day down to Orin Nano 4GB.
- Considering previous reports on the T239, it's very possible it will be a cut back Orin NX 16GB, probably with half the RAM. I'm saying NX 16GB because the 8GB version is a 6-core, and I highly doubt nintendo will go that low. However, it is possible.
My bet is in it being either a modified NX 16GB or an NX 8GB
As for hopium, stop projecting so much. I really hope nothing from Nintendo other than the games they make. Their hardware has been subpar for quite a few years and expecting a portable console to have top of the line hardware is dumb, unless you want a mammoth like the Steam Deck or 30 seconds of battery life.
Yeah but the price difference will still spur majority of the gaming populace to take a chance on Nintendo. But to your point the “impossible port” narrative will be significantly impacted by Steam Deck. Switch got a major boost for a whole generation simply due to not having a major handheld competitor.
You can get a Deck from Valve right now for $350, which is probably around where the Switch 2 is gonna land. The kind of Switch owner who was actually excited to play Witcher 3 and Doom would be way better served on a portable PC. Of course those want to play Zelda Mario Metroid Pokemon forever and/or are a child will want Nintendo hardware.
