Well no, that has no relevance in this thread, because this thread is about TK1, which will only be used in Android tablets! If you think that current gen Bay Trail graphics will provide a better overall gaming experience than mobile Kepler graphics in a tablet, simply due to the x86 and OS, then buy the Windows tablet. I, on the other hand, will pick up a TK1-powered tablet because the graphics performance and feature set is unparalleled in the ultra mobile space at this time.
So you are being intentionally obtuse... Ok. I should probably stop but what the hell...
I do believe it is relevant in this thread and have been discussing it with multiple people here without anyone saying off-topic but you... so perhaps you aren't a perfect barometer for what is relevant. If every time people discussed opposite view points on this forum we said "Well if you think that, then buy what you want and let's not talk" then there wouldn't be too many threads here or a point to being on a forum.
An aside, honest question- you would have the best graphics performance, but what feature set are you referring to? And followup, what would you use that top-end graphics performance to play?
So out of thousands of games on Android, you cherry picked two old games that were quickly ported to Android where CPU utilization spikes up to near 100%? LOL, way to go.
I picked the two games referenced in this thread and as far as I know the only two analyzed that are available for x86 windows and android. If you have other examples I would happily read up on it- I love this sort of stuff.
People like you who desire Windows x86 tablets rather than Android or iOS tablets are the minority when it comes to the consumer tablet space. And other than the Surface tablet, NVIDIA is not a player in Windows tablets at all today. So how could they have their "goose cooked" in Windows tablets when they are really not even a player in that space today? That was a nonsensical comment.
I never claimed to be a majority at all, even made a point to say I would classify myself as a gaming enthusiast... and that is the only space I am talking about. However, since NV has made it clear they aren't going for the majority, built the shield handheld, and now a shield tablet I feel my opinion is extremely relevant to the niche market of mobile gaming they are shooing for. You don't have to respond defensively because I am sharing the reasons I am leaning towards x86 tablet gaming now- There is obviously a great GPU in this TK1 SOC, I am simply coming to realize there isn't much I could use it for.
I guess the heavily simplified question is, would you give up 50% of the performance in your PC for twice the number of good games?
Edit: In response to your "So how could they have their "goose cooked" in Windows tablets" I never once said in windows tablets- please address what I actually wrote if you wish to somehow refute me. My point was simply in the gamer tablet space I could see easily a huge move to x86/windows.
