no OC switch games would access more than 4GB RAM, they'd only be able to use more if they're detecting the switch as a debug kit / devkit model. and the games would have to be non-retail. However, the OS probably wouldn't encroach on the game as much since the OS is running a modified UNIX OS , it must be able to autodetect the RAM and just use it, however the games won't use more than expected in retail models. so you might notice a 0.1 to 4% performance boost? what's more important on performance isn't the RAM capacity, but the RAM speed, and if the RAM is at all faster than the ORIGINAL RAM , that's possible, but not guaranteed. What else would be benefited from the extra RAM is the performance overlays and other hacked fw interface stuff that otherwise would have to use up OS RAM or game RAM to do what it's doing. Also possible: internal storage speed performance boost? due to the higher capacity internal flash memory storage chip, it might potentially read and write faster, but IDK if the controller is integrated on the chip or if it's external and therefore the same as the stock storage chip --- but if it's internal to the chip, it could make the read and write speed of the internal storage even faster, which might help with load times
