Nvidia Shield Tegra X1 - FANTASTIC specs... want want want...

[fredphoesh]

Well, THIS looks like what I have been hoping for.
I dont like the boy-racer looks of this thing, hideous IMO, but the specs are fantastic... HD Audio too...
This will almost certainly be my next Android TV box, unless something with a similar spec and less vulgar design comes out.

Yea this is def the box/console to rule them all. Not sure how the chinese companies will be able to reasonably charge 150 for their boxes when this thing craps all over em at 50 dollars more.

Exactly. Perhaps the likes of Allwinner, Tronsmart and all the rest will WAKE UP a little. This is great news for the market, will shake things up considerably. Even the yet-to-be-released Razor Forge seems outdated already!
