    Still not much compared to GF110's die size of 520 mm˛.
    I really hope these cards are going to bring significant performance improvements for gaming, and not just compute and tessellation. Fermi was a big gaming performance leap for Nvidia; however, I don't see this architecture bringing much more for games than some extra processing units (which don't scale that well past Cayman's numbers in the first place).
