The Digital Foundry also notes that the speed of the Switch 2 can be maximized to the maximum theoretical: 1.4 GHz for the GPU and 1.7 GHz for CPU. Nintendo can eventually use this headroom for better graphical performance and high -speed loading screens, such as He did it on the original switch in 2019. And while the developers can adjust the GPU watch rate used by their sports, it is unclear whether they will be able to rotate more and more theoretically.
System resources
As the original switch, 25 % of the CPU core and the overall memory on the switch 2 is protected by the system for the features of the OS overall and thus directly to the game developers. The digital foundry also notes that some GPU resources are protected by the system OS, though it has not provided definite measurements for this amount.
According to the digital foundry, using game chat on switch 2 can significantly affect the performance of the system.

This time, these system surface features include Game ChatWhich offers the ability to stream the gameplay and/or webcam video from four friends to the same system. Even despite the OS separating important resources, the digital foundry noted that the game chat has a significant impact on system resources, which provides a testing tool to Nintendo Developers that “API Latics and L3 Cash Lack of Cash”.
In addition to the basic pixel offering hardware, Switch 2 also contains a new separate file decomposition engine, which can handle loading game data away from the system’s 256GB on -board UFS memory and MicroSD Express extension card Without taxing the CPU. And while the portable screen of the switch 2 includes support for variable refresh rate up to 120 Hz, currently there is no official support for the VRR on the HDMI display connected to the system dock.
Although the numbers enjoy viewing, the original evidence of the hardware power of switch 2 will be in its sports performance. When we launch the console next month, we look forward to more direct comparisons of software performance.
