Edward Snowden slams Nvidia's RTX 50-series 'F-tier value,' whistleblows on lackluster VRAM capacity

But that’s assuming there is actual high demand for running big models locally, so far I’ve only seen hobbyists do it.

I agree with you in theory that they just want more money but idk if they actually think locally run AI is that big of a threat (I hope it is).

And the user who posted it. I really wish there was a simple way to block sensational posts from my feed.

I’m an idiot that waited. Saw a sapphire nitro 7900xtx on sale for €900 but didn’t get it holding out for the 5800. Now those are €1400 if you can find one and the 7900xtx is out of stock.

Have a 3080ti though so I’m not too bad off, just annoyed.

Don't feel bad, neither AMD or NVIDIA (or Intel for that matter) have produced anything worthy of note in the GPU space since the 1080Ti or 6800XT. Keep your 3080ti, it'll serve you well for now. Hopefully Morethreads or Intel make something interesting and disrupt the market although it's unlikely. NV and AMD have the GPU spaced fairly locked with IP (and cash reserves) that would drown any competitor in legalese for a millennium. The 7900xtx is a helluva card because it competes with overpriced NVIDIA hw, in any sane world it would be a 7800 class card and priced accordingly. (like the 5080 is actually a 5070)

Does he work for Nvidia? Seems out of character for him.

Thanks for giving me the idea. BRB, making a keyword filter for the words "slams" and "slammed".
