Depends on your expectations, technically NES had 60 FPS GPU.

If you want to drive a FullHD at that rate, and render GUI comparable to modern phones - you need 3D acceleration, ideally programmable shaders, and the fillrate.

GPU is unavailable at launch, they say it will appear in later versions, and it will be a PoverVR. Never said which PowerVR.
