> RX5700 isn't winning because it has new node and stuffing in more transistor

Sure, I guess, but it is probably still winning because it is manufactured on a new node - transistor count isn't the only thing that matters.

Performance is frequently power-limited, so because 7nm is more efficient it can achieve higher performance.

If you took the same design from 16nm (or 28, ...) and simply shrunk it to 7nm, you could achieve higher performance with the 7nm version - even though the number of transistors hasn't changed.
