So first we had the bitcoin craze, then we had muh ai, and now its memory chips for said ai. What's the next totally organic event that will fuck over gpu pricing?
>>107586795Need more fans to cool the datacenters
>>107586795Electricity shortage
>>107586795>Nvidia will reportedly cut GPU production by up to 40%Thank goodness for AMD Radeon and Intel Arc then.
TELL ME ABOUT THE HARDWAREWHY DOES IT HAVE THE MARKUPS?
death of general purpose computing
why cant we just have the fucking video games
>>107586898the eternal struggle of the Gamer Race>i just wanna play video gaaaayms>i just wanna play video gaaaayms>i just wanna play video gaaaayms
>>107586890It is mainly because there isn't enough GDDR7 volume for gayming SKUs.
>>107586926>i just wanna play video gaaaaymsezpz, a 1070 still plays everything. these new GPUs and fast memory are for AI, you don't need fast memory or lots of vram to play your League of Legends, timmy
>What comes after the memory chip shortagemass PCtroon -ACKing
Can't nvidia just resume the production of RTX 4000 series that use GDDR6 and GDDR6x?
>>107587396no
>>107587396Ada Lovelace production has ceased a year ago. Blackwell took over. Blackwell was build around GDDR7. There's simply not enough GDDR7 chips to go around. Nvidia is allocating its precious 4nm TSMC lot for professional chips that use HBM.
my optiplex 3020 and 1050 run the pragmata demo no issue
>>107586795Humanity has stopped declining. For a little while.
>>107586795I wonder how much their prices are gonna get inflated over the next 12-18 months.
>>107587440What kind of name is "Blackwell?"
>>107586795Water shortage
>>107586795I think it'll just be another round of artificially constrained supply with a whole array of bullshit excuses about shifting focus toward enterprise customers. Probably with a deliberate effort to push consumers towards cloud computing, therefore renting their hardware back from said enterprises.At this point they don't even need to hide it and they will all fall in line once they've successfully felt out the ruleset of their new collaborative scam. Nobody is going to punish them for acting like a cartel because tech companies have outgrown the ability of any state to regulate them in the most basic ways.
>>107587725This. The endgame is going back to dumb terminals that need to connect to The Cloud™ in order to do anything, for a monthly fee of course.
>>107586795> Throwing hardware on software issues won't be a thing anymore.Imagine the horror of being forced to write performant code.
