Noise = the signal collected by a pixel and it is impossible to distinguish between both even when we talk about them as if they're both separate. The best we can expect of ISO performance is that it does not add more noise and maintains the SNR identical as the signal collected. A wider aperture will always collect more light (at the same shutter speed) and in doing that, improve the SNR and thus deliver a better signal.It's impossible to get around that.</blockquote>
