    The only argument you can really have is about die space. If fixed function hardware is on die for ray tracing.

    The chip could be cheaper or have a larger rasterization GPU block, AV1 encode block etc etc

        Of course. But it’s still an absolute physical trade off. There is only so much die space and power budget or cost. They will have traded something off.
