Once Again, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang to Showcase What's Been Cooking for GTC - From His Kitchen
Remember that time when NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pulled the company's HGX system (based on Ampere GA100) out of his own oven? Well, it seems we might be looking at something similar come GTC, which is set for April 12th. The event will again take place solely via online transmissions and announcements due to the still heavily-grassing COVID-19 pandemic, and NVIDIA teased a new kick-off presentation from its CEO - from his kitchen.
NVIDIA has usually taken GTC as an opportunity to showcase products not for the consumer segment, however, so temper your expectations. You should also likely temper your expectations regarding Huang taking enough RTX 30-series graphics cards form his oven to satisfy the incredible demand and stock issues we've been seeing with NVIDIA's latest and greatest. What we could be looking for (as an appetizer to this year's over 1500 presentations) are products focused on the professional computing markets, from quantum computing to AI, passing through RTX Ampere accelerators for professionals, NVIDIA Drive products, as well as Jetson announcements. NVIDIA did warn some surprises might be in store, but again, this doesn't mean these are surprises aimed at consumer gaming products. Catch up on NVIDIA's official announcement and a previously-released GTC retrospective video after the break.

The keynote, delivered again from the kitchen in Huang's home, will kick off a conference with more than 1,500 sessions covering just about every innovation — from quantum computing to AI — that benefits from moving faster.

have you seen any of those cards recenty?
Or is it the public purchasing products, and by proxy pushing for more consumption, and what is the solution according to you?
Forced rationing by people you agree with?
We would be happy with them saying, "rsvp your 3080, 1 per order per credit card, and $250 off if you send us your 1080ti's." or "pre order 3080ti by sending in your 3070/3080 so we can send them out to those who need them most.
I find it mind boggling that neither AMD or NVIDIA actually said anything about this craze lol it almost tells you that they're involved in it.
But that's enough politics for this forum, contact me if you want to continue arguing so we don't fill this thread with political filler. Or don't, I'm not up for pointless debates. Had too many.
I was just adding to the train of thought you started.
