Some AI startups are grabbing crates of consumer graphics cards, stoking fears of a repeat of the GPU crypto-crunch.

Great, here we go again.

I guess NVIDIA, AMD and INTEL are going to revised their product segmentation for gaming and compute GPU at some point. Or AMD who provides more GDDR compared to NVidia is going to be happy to sell palettes of cards to AI people, no matter the effect on their more expensive compute cards sales. The 7900XTX 24 GB is indeed a good cheap deal for AI people. Anyway, it is not the first time nor the last that the pesky "consumers" use products (hardware of software) for performing operations the products were not designed for.

even the companies dont want to touch the 4060's.

Lol. I told everyone this was coming. Just wait until crypto explodes again along with AI. I just bought 4 4090's so I'm all ready to go. You all excited to pay $6000 for a 4090. I can't wait <3

I’ve been buying gpus to use for my ai farm for quite some time, the boom is almost here. At least this time I’m ahead of the ball game.

The promise of AI has been around for decades but has only been limited to the technology of the time. Today we have the technology between processing power and robotics engineering to make things even a decade ago seem impossible possible (especially around AI driven robotics). This has also increased demand and created new business need markets that didn't exist even five years ago.

So far though, I don't see anything that points to AI demands even remotely coming close to the GPU gold-rush like demand insanity like we saw for crytpocurrency booms and crashes between 2010-2022. But time will tell. The only thing I'm worried about as I sit looking at my 2 year old EVGA RTX 3080 Ti is how much longer it will last for my needs (if it doesn't die on me), and if AMD is going to produce a high end Nvidia competitor to go up against their RTX 5080 next year.

Wuhuu!
Time to buy stocks for Nvidia and AMD!
and move the new GPU tree more years in the future. They will be more expensive then, but hopefully little bit faster also..

 

[jackt]

Damn! ai is the new mining 😭

 

[CorpRebel]

Gonna be stocking up on my popcorn for when the techie forums go wonkers if this comes into play...

 

[Why_Me]

This sucks =/

 

[Amdlova]

Need to buy a graphics fast

 

[Shimada1300]

Here in our Region GPU prices are still hella expensive. Now this situation will surely drive up the prices even more!

 

[Loadedaxe]

lol, this is a funny world. "Ok fellas lets go buy a new GPU"

Save it, your only feeding into this shat! Be happy with what you have and dont fall for it!

 

[g-unit1111]

Noooooooooooooo!!! Not again! Please NVIDIA and AMD stop this madness before it starts!

I'm just thankful that I bought my 4070TI when I did. I'm looking at buying a higher end GPU like the Radeon 7900XT for my main rig, and I may do so before it's too late.

 

[bigdragon]

Here we go again. I'm sure investors are going wild right now.

Reminder that GPU companies are not your friend, and Asus, MSI, Newegg, Amazon, and other companies completely screwed over gamers in favor of miners during the height of the pandemic. They're all eager to do it again.
