The upcoming Nintendo Switch includes the new Nvidia chipset |
According to a Bloomberg report, Nintendo plans to use chips from developer Nvidia with better graphics and processing capabilities for the new Nintendo Switch models, which are expected to hit the market at the end of the season of purchase.
The new Nintendo Switch model supports Nvidia's Super Deep Learning sampling, or DLSS, a new display technology that uses artificial intelligence to render HD graphics more efficiently.
This allows platforms with OLED screens to display gaming images in 4K quality when connected to a TV.
The new chipset of the American company also provides a better processor and more memory.
New code must be added to the game to support DLSS. Therefore, it is mainly used to improve graphics in future games.
Bloomberg News reported earlier that the new equipment could include a 7-inch OLED screen from Samsung Display.
Although the company has announced a new partnership with Niantic for augmented reality smartphone apps, the schedule for the release of Nintendo Switch games in the second half of the year remains nearly empty. The partnership with Pikmin will start in 2021.
Analysts expect the new Nintendo Switch to be more than $ 299 over the current model. This price has not changed since the device was launched in 2017, and the increase could be as high as $ 100.
DLSS was first released as an image upgrade feature in 2018, but it is only available on NVIDIA graphics cards. Neural networks are used to reconstruct the game's visual effects in the highest quality in real time and in real time.
Different versions of this technology rely on a graphics processor and a tensor core trained on artificial intelligence for specific games to varying degrees. However, the result is that you can display games at lower conventional resolutions and get more performance with fewer performance issues.
DLSS is an exceptionally advanced technology addition by Kyoto-based Nintendo, which tends to opt for more mature and cheaper technologies than its competitors Sony and Microsoft.
And the new Nintendo Switch always falls short of the overall performance of its more expensive competitors.
Last year, Nintendo CEO Kuo Shiota said, "We appreciate how much new technology is adding to the entertainment experience and convenience of consumer gaming."
