The sooner I don't have to imagine the better. I probably use my video cards differently from you it seems.

Honestly 2500 for the 90 series wouldn't surprise me given the 4090 was like 1700 cheapest MSRP? I think mine was slightly better model so it was 1800 MSRP. If that's for the 80 series lmao though.

With Nvidia also entering the CPU market I wonder when we consider it a monopoly
I have a feeling china's regulators will break it up within the next few years, so not worth thinking about too much.

Nobody was buying the base pre super 4080 at $1,200. The 4090 had memory for video editing and a price/perf that made sense in the product stack unlike the 4080.

Anyone involved in any sort of hardware design would know that article is way off anyways. Nvidia wouldn't ship their cards to validation for them to finally boot up. That would've been internally

Yeah, dont these aftermarket guys just do the aftermarket fan mounting and housing and maybe a slight OC to nvidia specs?

Wait.... So EVGA stopped making graphics cards when graphics cards represented the vast majority of their business? Yikes. Having a partner just exit the industry entirely and go back to making power supplies only because of your toxic relationship should have been a wake up call for NVIDIA.

Most of their revenue was from GPUs, but most of their profit came from the other stuff. They got tired of NVIDIA dicking them around and said "fuck it, we're done".

AIBs buy the finished GPU dies from nVidia and have their PCB designs validated by nVidia if they want to do something besides the reference design. They do have to build their own cards, cooling solutions, source components, etc. nVidia’s own cards (Founders Edition) are built by PNY I believe.
