Stick to Nintendo Switch 2: they reveal what the real power would be and it could disappoint you

The expectation for the new Nintendo Switch 2, sadly for many, has just received a jug of cold water. New leaks have supposedly revealed technical specifications of this Nintendo console.

As has been known, The power of the Switch 2 would remain halfway between the original PS4 and the PS4 Pro, which, just remember, is a console that has already been on the market for almost a decade..

The information, published by the X Zuby_Tech account, comments that the Switch 2 would have an eight-core ARM Cortex-A78C processor and an NVIDIA T239 Ampere GPU. In portable mode, the console would achieve a performance of 1.72 TFLOPS, narrowly beating the Xbox One (1.3 TFLOPS) but falling short of the original PS4 (1.8 TFLOPS).

Of course, when connected to the dock, the power would increase to 3.09 TFLOPS, getting closer to the PS4 Pro but without equaling it.

Will the Switch 2 be able to surprise, or are you facing one of Nintendo’s biggest setbacks?

The RAM, on the other hand, would also improve, reaching 12 GB LPDDR5. In portable mode, it would operate at 2,133 MHz with a bandwidth of 68.26 Gbps, while in dock mode it would increase to 3,200 MHz and 102.40 Gbps. Here we are talking about a big leap with respect to the original, but, once again, falling below the latest generation consoles.

Despite all this, The Switch 2 will have potential new features such as the GPU would include 48 third-generation Tensor cores, intended to power artificial intelligence functions such as the rescaling system, possibly based on NVIDIA’s DLSS technology.

Additionally, the Switch 2 would maintain its hybrid nature, offering the flexibility to play in both handheld and TV mode. However, the reaction to the news mentioned above has been somewhat complex. If we talk about comparisons with consoles from almost a decade ago, the truth is that it puts Nintendo’s role in the industry on the table..

In any case, it is important to remember that these specifications are still rumors and leaks not officially confirmed by Nintendo, so, as always, wait.
