It definitely feels that way. I know there is a form of artificial demand and supply going on within the GPU space, and Nvidia has everything in their power to push for that ideal. They already know the data centers are their primary focus, so they can fully afford to fuck around with the consumer market and still make a profit from it, even if they sell to fewer people. 

Because AMD refuses to be successful and to try hard enough, they come off as if they are working alongside Nvidia like how Chinese businesses do, in which they create this fancy little illusion that the market is directly competing against one another, but in actuality they are working with each other to squeeze the same lemon dry for both their benefit. 

At this point I want AMD and Nvidia broken up, because both are now neglecting the GPU space in both a sluggish and anti-competitive manner. Both are not trying hard enough, and both are just setting their prices high, while Nvidia releases cards that either melt cables, burn up, or rely 100% on AI to create an illusion of perf gains, where there is none to be had without AI. 

Well, that one is on Asus, not Nvidia. It still sucks for him, even if GN buys it from him. Maybe he'll be lucky and will be able to buy a new one once they come back in stock at a more reasonable price.

That pisses me off. Black screens on not only the 5000 but also the 3 and 4000 series? We'll investigate. Power connectors melting/burning? We'll investigate. GPUs with missing ROPs? Oh, yeah, they're like 0.5% of them. They f*cking knew it and sold them anyway!

That's worth a lawsuit.

Dear God, that's a massive difference.

Your idea of getting a 750Ti wasn't that crazy after all. The 3050 will fly off the shelves.

Its mad how family can run 2 company's and act they are competing. Why something hasnt been done about this is beyond me as its becoming more cleare by the day whats going on.

The thing is, this isn't really unique to jensen/Lisa. There's multiple companies out there who are either run by same family members, members twice removed or cousins, even grandparents and grandkids.

The thing that gets me is why do you have to work with someone you're related to, even if they own a company that is designed to compete against you?. I know family ties and bonds can often get in the way with things like running competing companies, but in this instance it just feels like it's not that, but more of a cultural instance (Because in China, this is generally how their markets operate).

No one is ever really going to do a thing about this, because it'll be laughed out of the courts, and made into "whataboutism", or someone will call it racist that people like me are paying attention to how China operates it's own market sectors (by operate I mean not enforcing direct and brutal competition). Besides, Nvidia is just too big to be busted up and for jensen to be forced entirely out of the company, followed by extension of Lisa being forced out of AMD entirely as well (no way would that fly in the courts, but it's what I would enforce, because removing those two and any other family members severs that bond).
