        It’s confusing because they constantly change their numbering scheme. Nvidia has stayed consistent in the last 17 years

          Well yea… But nvidia didn’t change their naming scheme because they use it to mislead people.

          A 5080 today is equivalent to what a 1060 used to be when it comes to raw sillicon if I remember correctly.

              I mean that the 5080 size, I believe, is about 55% that of the 5090.

              Whereas, when the 10 series launched, the 1060 die size was also at around 55%.

              The percentaches are definitely not correct but you uget the idea. The non-90 dies of today are MUCH more cut down that the old ones.
