GPU’s are a family business it would seem.
Su’s mother and Nvidia co-founder and former CEO Jensen Huang are first cousins. Su’s maternal grandfather is the eldest brother of Huang’s mother.

As an AMD GPU person I’ve been chuckling at the Nvidia drama from my high horse, but I guess I’m not safe either lmao
Anyone who has any loyalty to any company I’d not safe. The only safe option is to treat companies as your rival. They will charge you as much as you let them, your job is to reciprocate that rivalry by voting against them (and for yourself) and abandoning them for their rivals as soon as they turn on you.
As a 3DFX person I have been asking, what is a pixel shader?
I understood that reference.
You think she has a Chinese boy toy on the go?
Jensen’s ladytoy was also a Huang.
So it might even be a third cousin
Wouldn’t you?
Hello yes, is where we sign up for our chinese boy toy?
Team Red is not the Nvidia protest option we thought it was, especially since AMD is now a data center-first company too. I bought a 7900 XTX a few months ago because it was the only 24GB card still under $1k, but now the price has doubled.
Data centre first company is what burned any goodwill I had for AMD. What a complete misstep.
Edit - we kept them alive for the last 15 years, and this is the thanks we get.
Are you guys just now learning that corporations have a legal obligation to their shareholders and nobody else? It’s literally built into their DNA like an animal’s drive to reproduce.
Anyone running AMD who made a different choice would be violating their fiduciary responsibility to the shareholders.
That’s how C corps are designed.
They don’t have a legal obligation to their shareholders. This is a a huge lie that is told to scapegoat the CEOs that enable consulting firms to carve up competitors for even bigger money. They have an obligation only to the board members.
This is an IMPORTANT distinction that is what fuedalized corporate America to such an extreme.
Here’s an older article from the NYT that goes over in greater detail exactly how correct you are. But let me just say you are so correct and GOD this is a frustrating one to see so commonly believed.
I mean it’s the same thing as the RAM industry colluding fo make prices exorbitantly high. Of course they’re all going to maximize profits at all costs, they get sued into losing their roles at the company if they don’t loot everyone for all their money at all times
I think mine was maybe a little over $1k, back pre-RAMageddon.

It looks like one can get them at about that price still.
Ah, nice! The only ones I saw otherwise were going for closer to $2k.
Trust me Lisa Su us also having a big LOL and champagne on this news.
