$3200 for a 5090 or $22,000 for an H200

The choice is clear but Nvidia was created by the low-end and enthusiast GPU market....

True, but honor and loyalty are worthless to a corp.

Nvidia has almost never given a shit about the low end market. They haven’t made a good low end GPU in like 20 years.

GTX 750 Ti was an absolute champ even for playing games at 1440p, and I would argue the GTX 1060/1050 were worth spiritual successors.

20 years ago you're looking at an MX440, over AGP if you were lucky.

In think they had many market segments covered, even with their Shield products.

It's clear that where they are going, tech enthusiasts/consumers won't sustain them, though. They will have to overextend themselves in Corpo bullshit, and either behind just another nightmare conglomerate, or die trying.
