The thing is, a custom Tegra, even based on Maxwell, could include design elements borrowed from the Pascal GPU family, along with enhancements and optimization of the original X1 design. So even if it's not Parker, it could still be pretty decent. Not sure how the 8 ARM cores on an X1 stack against the combination of 2 Denver cores + 4 ARM cores on Parker though.

Skeptical is good. I am always skeptical of expansive claims about products that don't match the known technology, which seems increasingly common with tech products.
