The Instinct line is for AI and the current top of the line has a 128GB of HBM3 ram on die. I am assuming it way north of $2k, though. https://www.tomshardware.

- tracker1 3y agoYeah, but my meaning is to offer a good to great value gaming card that can do a job of getting feet wet in the AI side. I don't think the bulk of people dipping their toes into AI on NVidia/Cuda are using their really expensive cards. AMD needs to win over the hobbiest and SOHO workstation types. The same types that will run a 5950x/7950x for 16-cores without jumping to threadripper or server parts are the same ones that are playing with Cuda on 3080/4080 class hardware. This drives the market in open-source and prosumer into the professional path.

Nvidia has been placing eggs in the form of "cuda on gaming gpus" in the nests of researchers and students for quite some time. "Nobody ever got fired for buying nvidia" might be the situation in the future if AMD doesn't manage to get a more popular choice among developers
