While I don't plan on doing much gaming on the Nexus 9, it's always nice to know it can handle graphics intensive gaming and it wouldn't take much convincing for me to eventually try it out with some games... I have the Shield portable for games but this tablet should be on a whole other level!

Very impressed with the demos on the N9. Looking forward to having that power when I get it (hopefully) next month.

I worked in computers all my life and this ability sounds really nice to boost speed and save power.

"The result is, once the chip [ 64-bit Tegra K1 ] learns a given set of code execution, it can save that in memory and execute it that much faster in the future. For tablets, this could be a very efficient means of balancing cost and power consumption with performance, due to the intrinsic efficiency of the chip design. "

That all seems nice, but am I the only one thinking 16 or 32 gb is too small for such big games?
