alt Hacker NewsNot defending NVIDIA by any stretch, but I think Intel is the only one that allows ‘enterprise’ features on their consumer cards, like SR-IOV.
Such a complete failure of the market that NVIDIA hasn’t had any real competition. All of the vendors abandoned PC gamers though. Though the price choke point is memory, not cores.
Which makes me curious, if AMD did another HBM-based card like the Vega series, would that RAM be cheaper now than GDDR?

many have asked why AMD doesn't make its GPUs cheaper.
lisa su and jensen huang not competing with each other on price and being related is as much of a coincidence as wuhan having a virology institute experimenting on COVID-19 and being the center of the COVID-19 outbreak

They do not. SR-IOV is only available on Arc Pro cards.
