Given a relative amount of benefit, with a ratio of Watts/Benefit, a lower ratio of Watts/Benefit should cost less to the consumer.
So the consumer would care because the service is lower cost.

- moralestapia 3y agoI'm truly confused by your argument and @pjlegato's ... It's more expensive to rent a GPU than to buy it. This whole comment thread started because GP wrote: >Remember retail GPUs are much more powerful, much cheaper and much more available than cloud GPUs. So, still, why would a consumer care about performance per watt?
