You really should have run the game installed directly to the Switch's internal memory in the bottom right corner. Might have been nice to see how fast it runs directly off the game cartridge as well.
Internal memory is fastest, then cart and then any other micro sd. Max read speed for the switch micro sd is about 100mbps, but higher cards can mantain higher speeds for longer.
I doubt they'll be upgrading too much other than the new screen and maybe a GPU/CPU refresh. I won't hold my breath, but I'd like to see them add Bluetooth audio support so people can use their wireless headphones without a dongle
@@frbird51 It actually does have the ability for 'Audio' bluetooth. Nintendo just won't do anything with it. Its almost as if they are saving the feature for a new version of the switch.. Hmmmmm..
I feel like this test would’ve been better if you compared SD cards with varying stats that mattered more. Comparing it to a UHS-II SD card doesn’t make sense since the Switch doesn’t support the extra BUS, like you said A better high-end card would’ve been the Sandisk Extreme, which has an A2 rating (a rating that applies specifically to how it’s used in the Switch) Would love to see an updated video with a more relevant comparison.
"We have nothing to put in the bottom corner, so..." You're putting loading from system there? "...here's my cat sleeping instead." ...okay, works too.
Awesome. I have a Nintendo livened card for my Lite and have had no problems with it whatsoever. It was in the Switch section at Walmart with my Power-A Breath of the Wild Pro controller. LOVED the kitty at the end! We NEED to see more kitties! ❣️ Keep up the great work!
Actually before watch this video i already knew, Switch is design to use the UHS-1 micro SD card, so you don't need to waste money to buy more expensive one such as UHS-3 SanDisk Extreme. Just use the standard SanDisk Ultra is fine.
Except that UHS-III is 30/mb a second vs 10. Which matters if you are going for full "digital only" constantly downloading data to the card stuff. Write speed matters for that as well as helps prevent data corruption. 30 vs 10 doesn't seem like much, but that's like saying a 30% STR bonus doesn't matter vs only 10%. It adds up. Having a good internet download speed but be hindered by a card only able to write 10/mb a second, maybe the average person doesn't notice, but I sure as hell noticed Smash Bros Ultimate stopped having as many data corruption errors when I switched cards.
@@I_was_a_Bullfrog Write it does, read it obviously does what even my phone can do. Regardless, the newer Switch will at least be tech from at minimum 2018-2019 unlike the first Switch which was 2015 tech. So it's going to have tech that will literally do what things already do what consumer grade does at minimum.
Now I‘m curious what the difference between a sandisk ultra and a sandisk extreme with the same storage space would be. Because I happen to have the Sandisk 400GB shown in this video, but the Extreme instead of the Ultra.
The main difference between a Sandish Extreme and Ultra is the fact that the Extreme is a UHS-3 type card (meaning it has 3 sets of pins), while the switch does support it, it only uses USH-1 type memory cards. The extreme is virtually useless compared to the ultra since it can't make use of those extra pins for faster read and write speeds.
Now that is quality journalism! The only game where I was baffled by the load times was yooka laylee and the impossible lair. Especially the initial load up took soooo long...
The timing of this video is perfect! I need to upgrade the current sd card in my Switch and was wondering this exact question! Think I'll go for the 400GB card.
I think the cats left eye shutting was 10 milaseconds faster than the right eye when shutting....but both eyes were slightly faster than when the cat twirlled around getting comfortable 😁👍🏾
Yes, I actually experienced this myself. Bought a cheap large capacity card that said it was fast... it was not. Returned it and got a Sandisk and it works like a charm.
Great video! most liekly the reason why the adata wasnt as fast as one would expect is because of the card size, storage mediums tend to read and write faster the more storage they have, this has to do with the cache if im not mistaken, as the card has more storage it needs to process more data and thus needing more cache which conversely lets it process more infromation in a faster manner. Still, I wouldn't expect that even if you were to compare the adata and "sannew" in the same disk size that adata would be faster, probably would be about as fast, those sandisk cards are about as fast as it gets with the UHS1 cards.
You should include a max out ufh - i card to see if that make any difference now that we know the switch cannot take advantage of the uhs - ii standard.
2 things: shouldn't you have compared SD towards in-console storage? The second thing is related to the first. A game like Minecraft MUST be played in-console storage, I have a "SanNew" and Minecraft had lot of lag issues (ghost blocks) and it took much time to log any Online data on boot. I finally moved the game from the SD to the console and it's night and day. Loads super fast and there are no lag issues at all anymore.

@@shiethegal A lot of the time on Amazon people get fake Samsung cards which have those issues- buying them in store or otherwise finding legitimate ones usually is fine. No shade against Sandisk though, they usually work great too!
Love the cat but maybe the stock switch speed should’ve been in the right hand corner oh and is the cat at 2 times speed? Just wondering for testing purposes
The 400 GB SanDisk is the fastest because it has the A1 certification. These cards have higher IOPS (input/output operations per second). There are also cards with A2 for even higher IOPS. The fact that the ADATA card is UHS-II shouldn't matter at all, it simply means that it reaches higher sequential read/write speeds but it doesn't matter in this case, the Switch can't even take advantage of such speeds. IOPS are more important here.
the thing that should make the biggest difference is the random read speeds (different than the sequential read speeds), which are reflected in the "A" rating. sadly, you didn't test anything (marked) higher than an A1, so the testing doesn't really show much.
You may want to try running the test again between the adata and sannew cards without any internet connection active. You can see the during the notification pop-up of someone logging on that the videos lag(both at different times, 10 seconds(adata) and 19 seconds(sannew).
I really thought this was going to include the Nintendo branded card too. I figure it's the same as the normal SanDisk one but with branding, but it would have been interesting to see the comparison regardless
I can't argue on whether or not the Kingston cards is a fake or not, but the speed pretty much is "as advertised" on the card itself. The card indicates it is a Class 4 (4MB/s) where as the Sandisk cards are Class 10 (10MB/s). Basically this equates to C4 being 40% slower. Taking a rough approximate of the two faster times from (ADATA and SANNEW) we have about 1min 18sec for the top-end (~best case) load times for Class 10 cards which in turn would translate to an expected Class 4 load time of: (1min 18sec) * (1.4) = 109.2s = ~1min 49sec. So at the very least the Kingston card is working at its advertised speed.
The fourth cat video alone granted this video a like from me. You do understand that this might be too much for your average viewer and provided a GREAT distraction while everything else was happening.
I want to know if there is any difference with card differences for Data Management in options. As of yet Nintendo has no way of organizing your games besides opening them to move them to the top of the list or re-downloading or updating them to get them in the order you want. On my original Switch I have a 512GB or 1TB card (can't remember which but I think it's 512 GB) and when I do this manual organization (which is a pain in the butt) I always go back into Data Management to delete save data for games I moved to the top which I haven't yet started. I do this which is somewhat obsessive compulsive just because I want to keep certain games on the top of my list. I do the same thing on my Switch Lite which has my old Switch Micro SD card in it at 250GB or something. Anyways Data Management is about 100x faster on my Switch Lite than on my original Switch and I've tested this Data Management in both handheld and docked mode for the original Switch. I don't know if it's that I have so much more data on a larger card or that it takes longer to read the card or if it's the brand etc. When playing games I don't notice any difference but I play mostly different games on my Switch Lite than my OG launch Switch. I'd love to know if anyone else does this compulsive "manual organization" and deleting the corresponding save data from data management just to keep their home screen in the order they want. I know I'm not the only one.
Well i am pretty disapointed first you say all those sd cards are from well known brands but you have 2 brands and they all differ in size. Why no lexar , sandisk extreme , kingston or even pny ? All you show is pretty much newer sandisk controller are better than the old one and the other card the adata is much pointless since its meant for newer gen stuff.
I need help so I bought a nintendo switch and it came with a micro sd card with 256 space I have only 3 games mario kart, fortnite and brawhalla. It dosent take that much space but now I bought mortal kombat 11 ultimate but downloaded not with the game and it takes 32gb and it took 24 hours just to install and after it didnt even install it so I tried it again and there was a error from my sd card. I took it out and put it back in and now it say I have 41gb left from my micro sd card that i barely even used i need help
When I got my Nintendo Switch, I still had to save up before I could afford the £35 a 128GB card cost in 2017! The only way I cld make sure my Switch’s micro SD slot actually works beforehand was to use an old 128 MEGABYTE card my mom originally had in one of her Motorola feature phones!
When I researched h the difference between regular SanDisk cards for the switch and the Nintendo branded SanDisk cards for the switch I found some information that stated that the Nintendo branded SD cards by SanDisk were optimized specifically for the switch. You should try a test with one of those to see if there's a difference.
Are you able to do this test with newer faster UHS-1 rated cards. For example the 120MBps sandisk ultra vs the new integral 180MBps UHS-1 to see if there is a notable difference.
surprise master system scrap brain music, nice i have a sandisk 128gb one but i'm beginning to realize i might need another one soon. that 400gb one sure looks neat
I’d love the Switch Pro to include a 240gb nvme, I can’t imagine it though as Nintendo make a profit on hardware so use the cheapest components possible.
Nintendo would not use a NVME SSD at all. Those are to big, expensive and can run hot. They would use really fast internal memory that’s in modern smartphones and tablets. It would more than likely have 128gb of storage.
1:52 80 MB/s (megabytes) is 8 times faster than 80 mb/s (megabits) as a byte is 8 bits.I assume you're saying the card is not as fast as you expected in which case the problem is you inverted the meaning of bit and bytes in your mind.
The listing claimed 80Mb/s, but that would be painfully slow, as we suggested in the video. We can only guess the person responsible for the listing used a lowercase 'b' rather than 'B', not fill aware of the distinction. -A

I have a slight problem: I have no idea how any of the cards performed because I was too distracted by the cat in the corner.
I can't argue on whether or not the Kingston cards is a fake or not, but the speed pretty much is "as advertised" on the card itself. The card indicates it is a Class 4 (4MB/s) where as the Sandisk cards are Class 10 (10MB/s). Basically this equates to C4 being 40% slower.

So at the very least the Kingston card is working at its advertised speed.
For a better test make sure the games are on the SD cards themselves

....not really. Its honestly the same as the cards. It comes down to the switches processor- not the speeds of flash memory
Alex and John are the life of this channel.
Zion is crying
Agreed hands down the two best😁
How does this compare to a game saved from the Switch internal memory
What's with the kitty timer? It's off by several seconds.
Kitties still very kewt tho
Everyone knows the cats are the real MVP in this benchmark. 💕💕
so THATS what the post was about.
huh
1:52 80 MB/s (megabytes) is 8 times faster than 80 mb/s (megabits) as a byte is 8 bits.I assume you're saying the card is not as fast as you expected in which case the problem is you inverted the meaning of bit and bytes in your mind.
The listing claimed 80Mb/s, but that would be painfully slow, as we suggested in the video. We can only guess the person responsible for the listing used a lowercase 'b' rather than 'B', not fill aware of the distinction.
-A
did you all try the 200GB and the 500BG along with a 1TB Micro SD card as they are also faster too
