Video cards of the 40 series have a 4N manufacturing process. This is not exactly a 4 nm process technology, or rather not at all - but simply an improved 5 nm process technology in some way.

50 series graphics cards can be very hot because the number of transistors will be greatly increased. And the new technical process will not allow not to increase the area of the GPU chip.

NVIDIA RTX 5090 to Leverage TSMC’s 3nm (N3) Node, Launching in Late 2024
The upcoming RTX 50 series GPUs, codenamed Blackwell, are planned for a late 2024 release. Like Ada, it will also be a monolithic design. According to Kopite7kimi, these GPUs will be fabbed on TSMC’s 3nm (N3) node. You can expect transistor counts of over a billion and densities of nearly 150 billion/mm². Blackwell should offer core clocks of over 3GHz and bus widths of up to 512 bits, resulting in memory bandwidths rivaling HBM memory.

For mining the bigger the number of transistors which the lower the nm production the bigger the numbers that can be fitted in should be a good choice (despite us not knowing what will happen to mining until 1.5 years from now).Rivaling the HBM memory is also a super good thing also as it means we would have much more algos to choose from when using these cards in mining.I wonder what will be AMD response to this as they did make an agreement to produce 4nm cards wtih Samsung but this news from Nvidia should clearly make them think as most likely they will lose the war again like every time against Nvidia in GPU market.
