    I think a lot of gear will be server/AI specific and won’t run in peoples home computers. GPUs with no graphics driver support, no video output etc. Some memory finding itself into HBM modules instead of DDR5. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have an agreement with the semiconductor cartels to crush it all so it doesn’t land in the consumer market.

      Yeah probably, but I think consumer hacks slash microchip companies might buy them and retrofit them to be GPU’s. If most of them are not just sold to the public, I suspect that nVIDIA et al might buy them back from business customers, and then modify them to re-sell to consumers.
