After their gouging and performance issues with 40-series and 50-series cards I can tell you one thing for certain: they’re not a serious graphics card manufacturer for gaming anymore.
Ai/commercial company
That depends on what you mean. Their main market is AI, but their reputation is still built largely on gaming. The two sides of their business are linked like the two sides of a coin and can’t be separated. It’s why they are so fiercely protective of their gaming reputation that they threaten and bribe journalists for favorable treatment and use software-specific driver tricks to artificially bump their benchmark numbers.
From the outside, I don’t consider them “key” for anything. There are other businesses and technologies that could easily replace them.
You can hate it (and I do) but their tech is pretty insane. Dlss to me looks like complete garbage but to 99% of people its fine and doubles their fps. I think they’re still an industry leader in hardware and ai.
seeing as EVGA quit a while ago and I cant tell you who the reliable partners are for Nvida cards anymore, Nvidia is soley an AI / Investment company now. Very little of what they do is intended for individual consumers building their personal computers.
More AI 100%. AI is world trend that needs to be everywhere and currently NVIDIA is world leader in hardware for that (sadly) so they can milk that so hard it’s not even imaginable 🥹
