Around 15 years ago in college, I took the opposite position that datacenter workloads mattered more to Nvidia’s future than gaming and no one believed me. It is amazing how times have changed.
- chneu 2y agoI used to work for Oracle in their datacenter hardware module. The scale of the orders that datacenters put in is insane. It's literally 1000:1 vs consumer stuff. While building a single server I could easily handle 2-3 million dollars worth of hardware. We'd roll out 50 of those in a week. That was just my shift and we had several. Gamers and consumers simply dont understand the scale that datacenters work at.
