Yeah... they keep shrinking the CPU cores/perf and increasing price with every gen.

 

[StereoVsn]

It is complete BS and prices are only going to head up with new tariffs.

The GPU market is fucked up right now.

If Nvidia is not even trying to make performant products then why isn't everyone else leapfrogging them? AMD made a 5080 size GPU that performs at 5070 and 5070ti level. Intels B580 is constantly out of stock and is also an oversized GPU.


Apples GPUs get bamboozled by Nvidia in performance and features. Qualcomm GPUs are an embarrassment, ARM GPUs are worst than Apples, Imagination is ok but they barely register on the map. So if it's so easy to do the things these reviewers claim then why isn't anybody else doing it?? How is Nvidia still king of graphics despite not even trying? Clearly it's not as simple as these reviewers claim it is.

Maybe because Intel, AMD, and Apple don't just focus solely on GPUs

They would if they could. The reason why Nvidia is the world's most valuable company at a whooping 3 trillion dollars is because they focused on GPUs. The reason why Intels CEO got fired a few months ago is because they failed to compete with Nvidia with data center GPUs. Now Nvidia has the market to itself and no one can compete.

There was a point where Intel was trying to buy Nvidia via a hostile takeover but it didn't pan out. They wanted Nvidia's GPU expertise.

The reason Nvidia is so valuable right now is because we are in an AI bubble and they got lucky with chatgpt blowing up. Their robotics push is poor and I have serious concerns for nvidia in the long term.

Don't get me wrong - Nvidia have done very well and have produced excellent technology. But it feels like things are starting to go wrong.

I'm glad he's calling out the robbery from Nvidia. I really don't mind paying for $1000-$1200 for the RTX5080 , if its a real 5080 that is at least if not faster than 4090 . But its so weak , damn

One of the few YouTubers who are GOATED imo and I don't even have a gaming PC

 

[tr1p1ex]

their only competition is seems AWOL an awful lately. And when AMD was real competition, the two conspired together to fix prices.

 

[MadchesterManc]

I guess Jensen wasn't a liar after all with the 'more you buy, the more you save' given the huge drop-off under the 90 class GPU's after the 3000 series

Relation to a larger chip has no meaning whatsoever because a larger chip can cost an infinite amount of money.
They could try to normalize that somehow by dividing the numbers of units by price or something but that would destroy their own narrative.
Techtubers are just farming views these days.

I really hope you are employed by Nvidia, because man, you rush to defense with expediency, that's for sure.

What a complete ridiculous suggestion. Now if you meant divide by wafer price, it would not affect the narrative in any way which would invalidate the rest of your post.

Prices are in a direct relation to wafer price so both can be used and would result in the same outcome. Not sure how else you would think that would end up.

The irony in this post is palpable. If you were using your brain, you'd never have made the statement below... A quick look at Nvidia's gross margin which has grown from the high 4x% to now 7X% would tell you to evaluate your approach. At least, a person using their brain would know that....

 

[diffusionx]

Does he discuss die shrinks? You're just not getting the juice from process improvements that you used to, which means the chips would be a bad value relative to prior gen even if prices stayed constant, but of course they're not staying constant.

Dont waste your time. He's been making stupid posts all day. He tried to argue that the 40 Super series launch was worse than Blackwell. You can't reason with that silliness.

I thought Leonidas was the only nvidia shill, but we have been proven wrong.

Eh, Leonidas is an Intel Blue diehard, not team Green!

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Yeah don't really feel graphic cards actually improved when it comes to price performance ratio since the 1000 series almost a decade ago.

Anything that's better you have to pay more for. Been using my gtx 1070 for over 8 years now and if I didn't know any better I would have thought I'll be able to get a graphic card for around the same price that's 3x stronger now with at least double the vram in 2025.

 

[Myths]

Yeah, but will a 1080ti scale to the power of a 5090? Price per performance on the consumer end is just one part of the equation. For the mid to low end segment, what's the "why" this is happening is the question.

 

[Hohenheim]

I hope my new build lasts a looong time, because if this keep up i'm definitly out of the high end by the next time i'll need a upgrade. Hopefully some mid range card can be a improvement over my current high end card by then (in 4-5 years)

 

[GloveSlap]

Things have been bad for a long time. It's crazy that we went right from crypto screwing everything up to AI. It would be nice if AMD picked up the slack, but they are going to be focused on getting their piece of the AI pie too.

Another great video by tech Jesus, hopefully Nvidia pull their finger out for 6000 series.
But who I'm kidding they won't.

 

[asdasdasdbb]

It's time to NV to come up with a new naming scheme. Because yes the gap is only going to widen. That's how NV is going to deal with TSMC's increasing wafer prices.

Thats the reason i switched whole platform last month but kept my 3080ti, simply couldnt justify buying 5080 at that 4090-15% performance and 16gigs of vram only, waiting for decently priced(up to 1200usd) 5080s/ti with 20-24gigs of vram here, and if not, 60xx series in 2027-2028 ;/

 

[CLW]

The more you buy the more bedazzling Jensen gets on his pleather jacket

 

[Skifi28]

The 9070 and XT are surprising competitive and probably did very well and AMD is upping their game in AI with the Sony collab. Seems like there's finally some competition in the GPU market after years, Nvidia should start being more careful with their pricing before we have a Ryzen vs Intel situation in a few years.

Where can we look at gaming products margins in isolation to their AI products - where margins are insane for sure?
Please do use your brain and provide me a link or something.

Those Nvidia prices are a scam, there's no excuse.

 

[mathello]

Should have jumped on the 40th series cards. They will age like fine wine everything else from 50 series forward will just be repackaged 40series performance.
