I've been out of the loop for a long while. What's the state of graphics card market and technology in late 2017?

Vega is a joke and Nvidia continues to jew with the recent release of the 1070ti.
Cooper Jackson
So nothing's changed then?
Jeremiah Gomez
Its worse now
Jacob Baker
all being bought by cryptominers for now.
buy the new cards in 2018
Wyatt Rogers
just wait
Charles Mitchell
Nvidia still dominates, prices are looking better but still need time.
Jonathan Cruz
its shit
>still
?, in what time frame has nvidia dominated? its only really been like 2 years since the 980ti which decisively overtook the 290x and its many rebrands for the first time
Kayden Diaz
Anything cool coming in the near future?
Camden Jenkins
JUST WAIT™
Owen Diaz
How much will the regular 1070 price drop when this hits?
Cooper Hernandez
>in what time frame has nvidia dominated?
I was thinking more of since the launch of Vega (but you are completely right), which beyond fanboys and miners, is a product nobody should buy over the competition.
Easton Russell
Should I buy a 1080 ti now or wait for the next thing to come out? I want the best
Jeremiah Morgan
What's wrong with vega? Is it another card that was hyped as the one who'd finally dethrone nvidia in the high end market but failed to do so?
James Morris
>What's wrong with vega?
Launching the card unfinished was a bad idea you know.
Jace Evans
The card is finished. The drivers are not.
Nicholas Walker
GPU is nothing without software surronding it, this way I totally agree with Jensen.
Brody Thompson
nVidia abandoned the NEET market and is all in Enterprise.
Fab capacities are limited, so they are focusing on where the money is instead of selling muh gaymes cards.
Look at their stock and youll realize that they wont give a shit about gaming cards for at least next 5 years.
Lucas James
No I don't know, I said I've been out of the loop. Last time I was in the market for a new gpu was like two years ago and I stopped looking for information after I bought the card

it's hotter, consumes 30% more power, consistently performs slightly worse than what each is targeted to take down and cost $100 more.
Jayden Flores
Meme learning will crash and burn in a few years, nVidia is risking becoming next SGI.
Besides, GPUs are of very limited use in datecenter, the TAM is slim compared to consumer cards.

$NVDA is a bubble.
Everyone knows that.

That's what you'd expect from higher clocked Fiji.
Samuel Myers
no it wont, that shit is just starting to grow. Even VFX is starting to emrace it, new AI plugins/rendering techniques added to 3D programs added everyday

Oh yes, totally.
ML/DL is the new hottest meme of the decade that will crush and burn like it supposed to.
Andrew Bailey
Nvidia is still the only company in the big three that gives a shit about Linux users, so they are expanding at an alarming rate.
Gabriel Reed
t. nocoiner
Benjamin Miller
They never gave a shit about gaming cards.
Samuel Ward
1080Ti
also inflation
Hudson Reyes
Over 60% of their revenue are the gaymen cards.
Dominic Myers
And?
Charles Young
They need to give a shit about gaming cards to not go bankrupt.
Brandon Williams
according to nVidias forecast, 30 billion in revenue from datacenter by 2020. They are all in.
Jonathan Torres

>gives a shit about Linux
AMD actually did the sensible thing, and started hiring up Mesa developers and telling their users to run the open stack instead of the closed one.
The quality of their drivers and the user experience is far better now than it ever was on my old Nvidia card.
If you run Linux, there is very little reason now not to go AMD.
Ayden Flores
Then went they sell the failed low binned crap of their computing chips as gaming cards?
Ryder Sanders
GPUS are overpriced as fuck, and I just found out that evga's awesome rma/customer service that is posted all over the internet is bullshit.
Asher Gray
It was finally good. AMD progressed from equal to superior, but then the Russian Ethereum mining bubble started and everything is shit again.
