I still want to know, how do the rumored 1536 shaders and 128 texture units come from only 500m~ increase in transistors?

You also have to factor in the removal of 128-bits on the memory bus.

I'm guessing there has to be major changes to the cores themselves. If the reported transistor count and die size is correct its the equivalent of gpu gastric bypass surgery, they will have managed to get ALLOT more from much less.
