26.8 billion of transistors. Pretty impressive. Roughly 2 years ago vega20 and tu10 series have around 13 billion.
4 years ago most common models +-7m and if you look further back it roughly doubles every 2 years.
In 2031 we will have mainstream GPUs with 1 trillion transistors. Compare that with the 1996 voodoo 1 with just 1 million transistors.

Even by the time Nvidia got on the scene with the GeForce 256 we were still talking £180 for the SDR model and about £220 for the DDR high end model. The market has got massive as have the silicon dies and the price per generation just keeps climbing.
