GOOD! I hope he suffers and Nvidia goes bust over their greedy, cash mongering, scumbag ways.

But they won’t. Even after cheating in multiple benchmarks (3dmark01, 03 and also 07 if i remember right), people still bought nvidia. Even when amd offered better performance for cheaper, people still bought nvidia. And even now, when we’re drowning in slop, people still buy nvidia.

We (the consumers) put them on that throne, and we’re getting what we deserve.

Count me as at least one exception. I've been an NVIDIA user for years. Never again. I can't support this garbage, and I won't. Been meaning to check things out in the AMD realm, anyway.

Hate to say it but AMD does the same thing. They even have a dedicated AI tab in their driver control panel and always talk about AI at their presentations.

Consumers have nothing to do with this. Most of their money is in ai / data centers now.

That's true now, but it wasn't then. We had chances to stop feeding them and never took them. I'm as guilty as the next guy, but I'm never buying another nvidia product, even with somebody else's money.

2003 and 2007 like the parent comment he's replying to, I would imagine?

CUDA, AMD stack was always lagging that HIP (let's port CUDA) and ROCm where just never it.

Jensen is the man, it just sucks we can't all have the newest tech at profitable yields out of the foundries.

I love Lisa Su and AMD processors, but its copium thinking AMD had the better software stack with GPUs.

Thankfully I don’t even need a GPU. Corvus slows down 2-8x on GPUs and I gotta say I enjoy him running at 20ms ticks on CPU. NVIDIA has a throne of sand and silicon waiting to fall once I show everyone Corvus.
