Seems to be squarely aimed at GPUs.

AMD's Zen+ 1700X (with no iGPU) has 4.8 billion transistors. 1080 Ti has 11.8 billion.

Even the latest Apple CPU doesn't hit 30 billion:

This will happen shortly, as Apple's M4 system-on-chip for mainstream PCs is already at 28 billion transistors.

For a more modern consumer level cpu with igpu, the 9950x3d has 16.6 billion transistors.

But the AMD epyc9000 series have 39 billion transistors on the smallest entry level server chips
