[QUOTE="Foxi4, post: 6634336, member: 203855"] The information is a little obfuscated from what I'm reading. They put a whole lot of attention on the Pascal cores, but don't talk much about the Denver2 cores or the advantages of using them over a standard big.LITTLE configuration of A53+A57. It's also a bit deceptive to compare the chip to the Huawei like they have in the comparison chart since the Huawei uses two A57 cores (the big muscle in the equation) while this new Parker chip uses 4 - of course it comes on top, it has twice the cores. Having looked at the Drive PX briefly, its TDP passes the 20W point, so it's impossible to implement it without a heatsink and active cooling to go full blast - that's not an option for the NX. Assuming that Nvidia was capable of making a stronger chip at a better manufacturing process, I'd optimistically assume that the new chip will maintain that thermal design point. If it were to be implemented and had to maintain consistent support for the same games in both modes, you'd have to slap a fan on the portable, and I don't see Nintendo doing that. I also don't see them using the latest tech - that's not what they do. The GPU prowess is unquestionable, but I don't know if the CPU would be good enough to compete with an octocore x86 - I'd have to make some calculations, but my guess is no. It's an exciting chip...

R Kelly and Cosby are guilty of it. I don't believe the rumours surrounding Jackson, unless it was proven true. He died so there's no way to confirm.

There was a lot of evidence against MJ that I had no idea about until someone posted a link to it... Never went to court because MJ paid the families off
