During the announcement of the new iPad was a slide shown by Phil Schiller on the chip used by Apple iPad for the third generation, able to get four times more performance than the competing Nvidia Tegra 3 . The guys at Laptop Mag have thus made a video with the new iPad paired up with a Asus Prime Transformer to try to confirm as reported by Apple during the conference.
Using some benchmark software available for both platforms, the results have not confirmed Quantro reported by Schiller. Overall the new iPad seems to offer better performance in the field of 3D but nothing particularly striking, while analyzing graphics performance tests OpenGL 3D chip A5X emerged victorious from the Tegra 3 on the benchmark 2.1 GLBenchmark getting about twice as many frames and four times the number of texture (texture pixels ).
In contrast, however, Tegra 3 is out head-on in bringing to fruition in the shortest time possible floating point calculations during some sessions, read and write thanks to an optimal memory usage and management of the operating system. Returning to the pure gaming performance, however, in tests conducted with Shadowgun and Riptide GP both platforms were aligned and performance offered only in the presence of optimization due to hardware differences are real sights, but not as sharp as had been reported from the slide Apple. You will still have to wait even more advanced games and optimized in order to determine more accurately the true performance of the new tablet.
Below is the video comparing the two platforms.
