[Gamers Nexus] Paper Launch

Thanks, I didn't know that!

Please just give us self hosting nerds SR-IOV on affordable cards. I really want to have a Linux VM and Windows VM that both have access to a GPU simultaneously.

I was hoping Intel would let some of these enterprise locked features trickle down as a value add, but no dice. Every year AMD just undercuts NVIDIA by a small amount, but it doesn't compete on some of that tech NVIDIA has so it's a wash.

But they're too concerned it would eat into their enterprise cards where they make boatloads, so it's not going to happen. Imagine if consumer CPUs didn't support virtualization, it would be insane and that's where we are with GPUs today.

It's a hobby. It's easy to drop thousands on the expensive ends of hobbies.

As for the amount of attention. I've watched far more sports car reviews than I have mid-size sedan reviews.

I think this is on purpose. The kind of people who spend $1000+ on a GPU are more likely to spend $75 on a new release video game.
