That is not the case, we don't have 28nm ready already. When Nvidia moves to 28nm, ATI will make a die shrink too, so if it is like GT200, things will go really bad for Nvidia, because ATI will make a improvement too.
well yea but the difference is that ATi is already working on 28nm, while nvidia is not, they barely managed to get GF100 to 40nm (and still having issues), so I don't think bringing it to 28nm wouldn't be an easy task either...and by recent history ATi always gets die shrink faster
