While nintendo has made it clear that there will be no new Switch hardware this year, there's little doubt that development on the Switch 2 is already underway in secret.

On paper, there's little doubt the Switch will upgrade to a 1080P display and a more powerful processor. But as for the processor choice, NVIDIA seems to be struggling to catch nintendo's eye.

While the Tegra X1 has not been blamed for its performance, the premature release of the bug has cost nintendo a lot of effort in blocking. Moreover, more importantly, Tegra and even ARM have gradually faded out in the hands of NVIDIA, weakening the brand, and even moving into fields such as artificial intelligence, autonomous machines and car driving, rather than consumer graphics computing products.

Foreign media reported that, for nintendo, the introduction of AMD GPU technology of the new samsung SoC will become the next generation of nintendo Switch excellent choice. If this happens, the three consoles will be able to converge on GPU technology, which, among other things, will be exciting for game makers and developers, which will reduce the need for repetitive development.

Last week, south Korean netizens reported that the preliminary performance of samsung Exynos 1000 test chip integrated with AMD GPU was very good, and the maximum in GFXBench could be nearly three times that of the snapdragon 865 Adreno 650.
