- lelanthran 8mo ago> My understanding is this was not enforceable in Europe, and maybe elsewhere "Not enforceable" just means they can't sue you. It doesn't mean they can't say "We won't sell to you anymore".
- YetAnotherNick 8mo agoThey did it by limiting the supply of cards. Even if you are ready to pay 4x of MSRP, you can't buy 100 of the card at once. Many consumers bought 1 GPU at 2-4x of MSRP.

- soulofmischief 8mo agoYep, I do GPU passthrough to virtual machines because I would not let Windows touch my bare metal. You have to patch your ROM headers and hide the fact that you're in a VM from the OS. So even as an end-user, a single person, I cannot naturally use my card how I please without significant technical investment. Imagine buying a $1000 piece of equipment and then being told what you can and can't do with it.
