lol, this won't run 4k. Or it'll just be smeary 4k up-scaling. And I really doubt games will run 1080p 60 fps.

That or this is just using a lot of "AI" bullshit. Render at 720p 30fps and then upscale it and then use frame gen to fill in the gaps.

I don't think any game runs at 1080 fps 🤔

Dang it. Good catch there.

I think with Nintendo's art style 4k is possible. It won't have photo realistic 4k

It’s a nivida chip, so it’s going to be 4k with DLSS. Unsure if it’s the latest transformer model or not, but either way it’ll look better than Nintendos previous upscalers

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Previous upscaler was Nvidia as well.

It's probably an Orin. It matches the die size that kopite7kimi mentioned. It's also ampere based, which makes the most sense as it would either be based on 20 or 30 series. But regardless, it's going to be cut down like they did for the switch, since battery life is the most important thing.

But no hardware in this planet can make Pokemon environments look good
