    I usually buy AMD for their open-source support. I wanted nvidia this time around to fiddle with AI stuff, which is better-supported on nvidia right now.

        This person is a consumer, just like you. Your gaming is no more important than their fiddling. Your angst is pointed in the wrong direction.

        People at home using their gpus for a mix of gaming and local ai are not really the source of that issue

        I was upgrading anyway. My RX 580 wasn’t cutting it for games any more.
