Nvidia really be out there selling pickaxes during the gold rush. Or, more aptly, selling shovels during the digging your own grave rush.

Yeah, they're the one company I can't really fault in this.

If people want to pay you to make a full of themselves, are you really going to turn it down?

I just wish they'd make reasonably priced GPUs for gamers again.

At this point I just want an GPU that CAN‘T do AI. I mean I wouldn‘t pay extra for that, I however would pay extra for more VRAM, bigger bandwidth, more cache, good undervolting performance etc.

Selling shit to assholes.
