Rumor: Nintendo is working on a new Switch model with a single-chip system based on the NVIDIA Volta architecture

A new rumor has appeared on the network that indicates that Nintendo working on a new successful console model Switch. According to the information provided, the single-chip system (SoC) of the future device is being developed jointly by the Japanese company and the technology giant NVIDIA. As you can know, the latter already delivers its SoC NVIDIA Tegra for current models Switch

As reported Asian portal ClienThe new Nintendo Switch model may be released at the very end of this year. At the same time, it will not use the Tegra X1 + chip (installed in the new line of Shield TV and Shield TV Pro), and a specially developed Nintendo and Nvidia processor based on the Volta architecture.

However, even with the new processor, one should not expect a significant increase in performance and support for 4K resolution. According to information from a Taiwanese source, the production of these custom chips has not yet begun, so a scenario is possible in which the release of the new model may not take place before the end of this year.

Since the rumor came from unofficial sources, information should be treated with some skepticism. Nevertheless, the informant has a pretty good reputation, as he previously reliably disclosed data on mobile products.

Earlier this month, the Taiwanese portal DigiTimes also reportedthat in the middle of this year, the Japanese manufacturer plans to release a new Nintendo Switch model.
