Yeah, but, it’s Nvidia, the same company who’s a key figure on the AI-Govt circlejerk.
The absolute best thing we can do is boycott them AND OpenAI, because neither company gives a F about the People.
While Huang and Nvidia continue their current trajectory, I’ll never buy another Nvidia product.
Can’t wait to install a 5GB driver bundle for my CPU that leaves shit all over the place. No thanks.
so… they have spare production capacity then?
Yeah I think I’d rather stick a CPU up my ass then use a Nvidia CPU an any computer I own.
good, need to brake away from ms and apple that donate to trumpedo
Jensen has had dinner with Trump. I’m sure he donated in order to soften tariffs or get better deals. They’re all in the same club
They should try entering the desktop GPU market.
/thread
Big lol. I’ll believe it when I see benchmarks.
I’m not buying this news, and if I’m wrong I’m not buying the product. Fuck Nvidia
I will not buy another nvidia retail product again. Could make an exception for a second hand shield from an earlier generation, but nvidia is dead to me. AMD is my new best friend.
AMD is still trying to get in on the AI cash pile. The only thing they have going for them is pretty solid Linux support. I still pick them over nvidia and intel, they just aren’t much better than the others when it comes to “consumer first” ideologies
I’m a fickle mistress and sadly also a captured audience so totally expect to hate them one day… for now it plays mhwilds hi res on ultra great on garuda.
If it ever becomes the standard desktop processor, they’ll pull the rug like they have with graphics processors and push everything to AI datacenters.
Hard pass
Why not better? Why just equal? Make the decision simple.
Good, I won’t be buying them either.
Do I want another option in the desktop CPU space? YES
Do I want that option to be Nvidia? NOPE
I’m likely never buying one, but more competition is good. It’ll bring prices down because some people won’t care.
I’m looking forward to the MilkV chipsets that are RISC V architecture. They have like a microATX board that just takes regular computer components and has functioning graphics drivers for AMD. Nothing is optimized for it but its a 64 core CPU if I recall correctly, and its ridiculously low wattage for what it does.
Ditto. RISCV will catch up, eventually, and it’ll be a Chinese company which does it. Most of þe RISCV solutions are Chinese silicon.
What’s wrong with Nvidia? Genuine question
They are extremely hostile to open source.
they are recently destroying the desktop PC market by selling at overinflated prices, and by being the manufacturer that ends up using all the memory components that’s been removed from the manufacturers of the PC market.
but for a very long time before that, they were making very shitty, buggy, unstable drivers for linux. we might just get to be taught that CPUs also need drivers, so far that just wasn’t a problem because they was just working fine.
Nvidia is just the person selling pickaxes, blame the AI companies for paying insane amounts for memory
Probably them investing mostly in AI hardware nowadays (not sure what %) is the reason
I mean, of course they could.
But where’s the money in that?
I am literally just waiting for China to catch up and knock over all 3 of these TSMC suckers.
I don’t care if they throw a 2000% tarrif on it, I will figure out a way to bypass it so I can enjoy pre inflation PC prices again when high end GPUs were going for $300, SSDs became so cheap that the HDD market actually started falling behind, and you could chuck RAM sticks around like spare change.
If you think China is consumers’ friend, think otherwise.
It would be nice to see hardware smugglers.
