If only, NVIDIA could use their enterprise solution on consumer hardware.

It has been decades since I did any electronics, and even then only as a hobby doing self-build projects, but the power feed management (obviously a key part of such a high current and expensive component in a system) is shameful.

All symptoms of being number one.

Customers don’t matter, the company matters.

Competition sorts out such attitude quick smart but AMD never misses a chance to copy Nvidias strategy in any way and intel is well behind.

So for now, you’ll eat what Jensen feeds you.

Uhh, these 12VHPWR connectors seem like a serious fire risk. How are they not being recalled? I just got a 5060ti , now I'm wishing I went AMD instead.. what the hell :(

Whoa, the stuff covered in the rest of the post is just as egregious. Wow! Maybe time to figure out which AMD models compares performance-wise and sell this thing, jeez.

Why does the hero image of this website says "Made with GIMP"? I've never seen a web banner saying "Made with Photoshop" or anything similar.

I don't know why it says that, but GIMP is an open-source project so it makes sense for fans to advertise it.

Were you on the internet in the 90s? Lots of banners like that on every site.

I do web development for the last 25 years and yes I was there before .com boom. Gifs maybe were marked but not banners like this.

Call it delusions or conspiracy theories, what ever, I don't care, but it seems to me that NVIDIA wants to vendor lock the whole industry

If all game developers begin to rely on NVIDIA technology, the industry as a whole puts customers in a position where they are forced to give in

The public's perception of RTX's softwarization (DLSS) and them coining the technical terms says it all

They have a long term plan, and that plan is:

- make all the money possible

- destroy all competition

- vendor lock the whole world

When I see that, I can't help myself but to think something is fishy:

They’re not full of shit - they’re just doing what a for profit co in a dominant position does.

In other news I hope intel pulls their thumb out of their ass cause AMD is crushing it and that’s gonna end the same way

it would be "just" capitalist to call these fuckers out for real, on the smallest level.

you are safe.
