Then why don't they sell consumer GPUs with tons of memory. They clearly segment the market into consumer versus server/business.
- HanClinto 2mo agoThe upcoming RTX Spark [0] is aiming to fill that space -- consumer GPUs with tons of memory. [0] - https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/products/rtx-spark/ https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/products/rtx-spark/
- SuchAnonMuchWow 2mo agoThis is not a GPU, this is a laptop SoC with CPU and integrated GPU, and knowing nvidia it will probably be even more closed than an intel CPU. You will own even less of your hardware

- bigyabai 2mo agoNearly all ARM CPUs are "even more closed than an intel CPU" on a driver level. Nvidia stands out by supporting UEFI on ARM, which even Apple refuses: https://docs.nvidia.com/dgx/dgx-spark/uefi-settings.html https://docs.nvidia.com/dgx/dgx-spark/uefi-settings.html
- pizza234 2mo agoThere are - see the RTX Pro 6000, which has 96 GB. There are a few problems though, primarily, a GPU with lots of VRAM and very high bandwidth is inherently very expensive (on top of which there is also the CUDA premium); AI use cases are better served by SoCs with lower (but still high) bandwidth and more RAM.
