Unless you're aiming at comparing GA102 with a GPU inside some midrange Qualcomm SoC for some reason all these "what ifs" are as relevant as saying that perf/transistor doesn't matter cause your GPU at 28nm can have higher performance than another GPU at 5nm.What if one GPU is using high performance libraries and another high density? What if the HP library GPUs are made on a high contested (and therefore expensive) node, while the high density design is on a less performant (and thus cheaper per transistor) node? I think "performance per transistor" goes out the door as a relevant metric when one GPU designer is laying out 40-50 MT/mm^2 while the other is getting 65 MT/mm^2 on the same node.
We are talking about competing products aimed at the same market and being sold at the same time, not some made up situation.
