NVIDIA Updates its GeForce RTX Case Badge to Mention AI Acceleration Chops

btarunr · 2024-09-02T14:40:47+0100

NVIDIA updated the official case badge of GeForce RTX with the byline "powering advanced AI." This case badge is prominently displayed in the retail box art of graphics cards, and pre-built desktops and notebooks. Although OEMs tend to skip this badge on the chassis of their gaming desktops, their notebooks tend to proudly flash the case-badge near that of the processor. The byline is well-earned, as NVIDIA is a leading hardware brand in AI acceleration, and even its most affordable GeForce RTX models include tensor cores, which accelerate AI inferencing.

I presume there is a typo in the headline, should be "chips"?

Nah, it's the muttonchops, the sideburns...

As I wrote months ago:

"Due to explosion in AI demand and revenue I believe we will see a release mostly focused on how these cards can be used for machine learning, home Neural acceleration etc., we will see focus on all the applications AI can and could some day perform, and so Nvidia will even rename the cards from gaming to something that should encompass gaming + neural acceleration, and "Gaming" sector won't be called gaming any more - and they will show even Gaming itself needs AI acceleration now, for all the smart antialiasing / resizing to accelerating NPCs, speech recognition and generation etc...

And they will provide proof - all the extra "Gaming" revenue that is pushing Gaming to record heights is coming from orders for AI related acceleration now.

So the tiers, pricing, everything is open to total change now that the market's changed."

Chops means merits/qualifications.

So they finally tell the truth.
As a sidenote I just took the Steam survey and the 4090 didn't even make the list.

Nvidia is going to sell you a new featureset on a marginally larger / equally sized die and you shall pay extra for it.

Enjoy

At least when you toss a coin in a black well they grant you a wish, you can enter that in your prompt.

While the hype lasts... and the cash keeps flowing because you print AI on something.

Okay, NOW I'm sold. Where do I buy an nvidia product?

Legacy-ZA · 2024-09-02T22:29:19+0100

What an awesome badge, it even says A.I.

Just take my money already, I am willing to spend $1,000,000 for an RTX 0000 :roll:

The best kind of chips are the ones that need to be dipped in salsa, the hot kind.

RTX is a thing of the past. The new "current thing" is AIAIAIAIAI (whatever the heck it means, who cares, we live and die for buzzwords)!!! :rockout:

Bwaze · 2024-09-03T05:29:10+0100

I'm pretty sure we're going to see even bigger break with current tiers, pricing - it will be an astronomical rise, even greater than from $700 RTX 3080 to $1200 RTX 4080 (where reviewers were awarded handsomely to explain to us why this was inevitable, and even good)...

But it will be OK, Nvidia will of course ensure us poor gamers that don't intend to make a living with their new smart AI home companion that we can continue to buy their old dumb non-AI cards. Which will also shoot up in price, because that's just the new reality.
