It's certainly in the right direction, the biggest thing being is it not being a wholly customized proprietary chip

While Nvidia has not confirmed anything about the Switch 2, the T239 chip was first outed in 2021. However, the T239 has been name-checked in several subsequent leaks, including documents from the 2022 Nvidia hack. Based on these leaks, the T239 resembles an adaptation of the T234 chip from one of Nvidia's Jetson automotive modules. With that point of reference, it's possible to get a ballpark idea of the Switch 2's performance. DigitalFoundry used this estimate to create a Switch 2 analog with a modded RTX 2050.

Repurposed is good, reporposed means an increase in likelihood that they "left something helpful" in lol
