Even when we will reach the reasonable maximum of transistor shrinking, then GPUs can scale up based on electric power.

If we allocate 1kW for a gaming system, GPUs will be able to scale up a lot more.

That's for theory, then the limiting factor could become the vram unable to feed fast enough the GPU, then we could imagine GPUs with "less vram", but something ultra fast like "only cache memory".

playstation 10?

oh... and in the 1kW, it could include the peltier (intense cooling) energy cost.
