Some more numbers do guesstimates.

32MB eDRAM = 37.12 mm^2
Wii GPU + eDRAM = 156.21mm^2

So 119 mm^2 for the GPU only... which GPU in AMD catalog fits in ~119 mm^2???

Turks are 118mm^2 - so I'm guessing that e6760 rumour might be true after all (or equivalent, something like 7590m, but with DDR3)?

Remember that the 156mm^2 is a superficial number. These guys measured the chip carrier dimension, not the die size. (the "real" die is protected inside the ceramic carrier). Usually there is a (sometimes quite large) safe area around the border of the carrier. People may also not count the pad area on the die. Die size of the GPU probably is in the <120mm^2 range (unless they really risk it).
