    Be interesting to see just how much these are basically AI accelerators in disguise, which accidentally do gaming too.

    Expecting a 5090 that’s even more expensive than the 4090 and still sold out for 6 months.

    As a laptop user it would be nice to go from 8GB vram in my 3070ti to something like 16gb, but I wonder what insane power requirements even the mobile parts will have.

      A 16GB dGPU on a laptop is going to be annihilate the laptop battery. Efficiency focused GPUs are the realm of iGPUs.

        I’m already using a mobile workstation type thing with 1h battery at most. That’s the unfortunate reality of mobile CGI / CAD work. I’d still be interested, as I have no alternatives.

      I just paid a ridiculous dollar amount to get DDR5 when it was brand new. Now I’m seeing DDR 7? Won’t someone think of the children?

      Edit: I realize that GPUs are always ahead of regular RAM, but still, it means 6 will be coming to desktop soon.

    NVIDIA can suck a fat one. I’m getting an Intel Arc A580. It has decent performance and lotsa RAM.
