Weird to call it a gaming gpu when they are specifically targeting production workflows like Blender for now.

    Can you please tell me in which part of the video they say this is a gaming GPU? Because at 3m30 he says directly they are targeting content creators and production.

    I thought this was just another bunk startup but it was legit.

    They don't rely on proprietary hardware choices, VRAM can be upgraded. Dual PCI slots. They have contracts with fabs.

    But as the video points out, for gaming, drivers are everything and you can bet nVidia will fuck with game developers, or they may not care because the Wang sees only AI in the future.

    Not a bad idea, still in it's infancy and could be the only alternative for getting a GPU since AMD and Nvidia are both AI sluts, but will approach with caution.
