Single nm in this case is a 15% improvement. The number of nm isn’t the important part.
And Valve isn’t Nintendo. Their hardware strategies, developer strategies, and manufacturing strategies are wildly different and really shouldn’t be directly compared
its a 15% improvement, only if you use the same die size. a die shrink shrinks said design to a smaller one, so the end product is smaller. they do not add any more transistors to the die, which is the mistake you’re making.
if theres a performance, its the increased memory speed and new cooling hardware. Valve has stated themselves that they don’t expect many performance differences at all.

They told you the performance target is the same.
It would be silly to expect the performance to be meaningfully different.
