Nintendo NX uses a custom 64-bit ARM SoC manufactured on TSMC 16nm process.

If NX is a handheld devlice, sure.

What does it all mean, Basil?
>>
>>318794373
It means it's more likely to be portable since ARM chips are usually for mobile devices.

Says who?

Also, that doesn't really tell us very much.
>>
Oh great, more bullshit "leaks."

While we're on the subject though, I'm not really up to date on ARM these days, does anybody know if it's possible to get per-core performance on par with the Jaguar cores in the PS4/Xbone?
>>
>ARM


sick as fuck of this meme
>>
>>318792169

If that's at all true, it limits the CPU to being basically the lower-end Cortex A72.

If it's paired with a recent mobile GPU on the same SoC, you'd be talking a small device with the horsepowers of a top-end tablet/midrange laptop, far outperforming the xbone/PS4 in horsepower at least in terms of synthetics.

The Jaguar-based CPU in the xbone/PS4 is the same mobile chipset as the Semperon 2/3xxx and Athlon 5xxx series and the A72 squarely destroys both.
>>
>>318798103
Yes. A PSBone Jaguar core is literally weaker than one core in last year's iPhone.
>>
>>318798103
It's a pretty long answer.

The tl;dr really is depends on GPU and what the SoC specs in total, the CPU is only about a quarter of meaningful indication of the throughput.

The PS4/Xbone CPU alone is utterly, utterly pathetic - talking a 4-year old processor that would be in an extremely low-end laptop, but the GPU, memory and skill of the developers/coders make up for it.

Yes, any current 16nm TSMC/ARM CPU-based SoC will blast it out the water, but that's just because it's newer and not because of the blood of Nintendo's fanboys that are sacrificed at the altar or Reggie.

i am buying the NX regardless of what it is

so then the NX is a new portabl device?

holy fuck nintendo, is the NX just a fucking mario branded calculator?

NX is going to be Android.

Which makes sense. Nintendy hate giving royalties to cunts. They'll likely have their own Android version and get all the media and app stuff they want without paying anyone squat.

Handhelds probably the same.

That is, this is if Nintendy is smart. I'm assuming that's what they're going for.

It's also 300x stronger than the PS4

How do you know that? Did you read the script?

I don't understand. Are you refuting or backing my claims up? All the ARM devices you just listed were handhelds.
