NVIDIA says Tegra 3 is a 'PC-class CPU,' has screenshots to prove it

Asus can't be absorbing all those limelight photons today. Not when its newly official Transformer Prime depends so heavily on NVIDIA's special sauce. Admittedly, we already know a lot about Tegra 3 from its Kal-El days, but until now we haven't seen much in terms of real-world performance claims. Below you'll see some newly released screenshots of Android games that have been souped-up to capitalize on the imminent Transformer Prime as well as other Tegra 3-powered devices -- including smartphones -- that are expected early next year. NVIDIA have also put out slides containing in-house benchmarks and head-to-head comparisons with the Tegra 2, which you'll find after the break.


NVIDIA claims its latest chip is fives times faster than Tegra 2 overall, four times faster for web browsing, three times faster for graphics thanks to its 12-core GeForce GPU. This GPU can also handle 3D, which the Transformer Prime can then output to a bigger screen via HDMI.
