    PGL Investigating GeForce RTX 4080 GPU Driver Crash, Following Esports Event Disruption

    Just highlights the difference between general computing, servers with failover, and life-critical computing for an airliner or chemotherapy machine. The way consumer hardware and software is designed, bugs are an annoyance, not a mission critical event.

    PGL Investigating GeForce RTX 4080 GPU Driver Crash, Following Esports Event Disruption

    It just seems more and more that nVidia wants exit the consumer gaming market. They go from one scam to another: Crypto mining to AI. When AI goes bust, I wonder what they'll move to.
