can someone explain to me AMD’s strategy? they’re waiting for Nvidia to release the 5000 series for weeks before releasing their own? how does that make any sense
The CEOs are cousins, their strategy is to take all your money.
I didn’t get the thing with wearing the Dave clothes all the time to these releases. Just seems weird
But how many spatulas can he buy with that sweet sweet GPU money?
Omg I wish I had that many rubber spatulas
Spatula city is having a liquidation sale. So quite a lot.
Holy spatula. Interesting backsplash too.
Horrible to clean
I’d put in a professional hood if I had that kind of money
Horrible to clean
DEAR GOD THE 9090 RELEASE JENSON PLEASE!
What GPUs to buy?
They’re all gone. Everything. 7900XTXs, 30, 40s, obviously 50s.
It doesn’t make sense. Did like a new crypto craze kick off?
AI. Consumers get the leftovers that can’t be binned high enough to be H100s that they can sell for 30k a piece to companies doing AI work. The 50 series uses the same node as the 40 series, so they stopped production on the 40s to allocate time to the new chips. Of course this has the nice effect of stopping cannibalization of sales when it turns out the 5080 is basically a 4080 super and would be binned as a x070 or x060 Ti part in prior gens.
Either way it looks like they only started working on them early January based on some investigation so far (https://youtu.be/wMd2WHKnceI) so there’s likely only a couple thousand 5090s even in existence.
Voodoo 2 SLI or maybe a GeForce 256
The “Leather jacket is part of my identity” people are weird. Especially if they are as old as this guy and don’t even ride.
He attributes the style choice to his wife and daughter suggesting the jacket.
Gatekeeping it to people that ride is lame and antiquated
It’s my lizard-embossed jacket, and for me it’s a sign of my immortality and my belief in insatiable greed.
Meanwhile 5090’s are now going for +$3k
May slightly impact your FPS per $ calculation, just a smidge.
