This doesn't matter much for ETH because its mining algorithm dissuades ASIC production. So there are some (large) number of GPUs out in the world not mining ETH that can in theory be used to attack Ethereum. The same can't really be said for Bitcoin because ASICs serve no other purpose besides mining.
