Not at these GPU prices. Over time, that might force people away from PC gaming, and Nvidia is not powering high-end consoles.

I am disappointed that nobody in cloud gaming has made a game that using the monsterous GPU instances in the cloud to synthesize a super-complex world and generate video for multiple players simultaneously but I think a system like that would not really beat highly optimized single players and furthermore optimizing it to the point where they could really deliver a “skip three generations” kind of experience would be expensive and risky.
- nightski 3y agoI don't think ML is driving consumer GPU prices, although I could be wrong. They are selling 3080s and below primarily for gaming. Maybe an argument could be made for the 3090/4090, but even then that is extreme solo enthusiast territory. It's clearly the higher end chips that are bringing in the AI revenue.
