Does it matter? They'll probably cost $3,000 and they'll sell, like, 5 of them.

They’ll probably cost $3,000 (if not more) but they will sell truckloads of them

They've gone straight from crypto to AI. Technically there will be lots of them, but gamers won't see any.

No you mean by the truckload. To scalpers.

Its the obvious choice. In technology you have the Magic Triangle: Cheap, Fast, Small. Pick 2. The one you don't pick usually becomes the opposite.

This one is Fast and Small. That's how you know its going to be unobtainably expensive.

I don't really care for size. What's cheap and fast?

Not sure, but surely it will be the size of Texas and require a power supply capable of running a small country.

Dunno. What I know: It will be overly expensive.

Is there even a CPU capable of not bottlenecking the 4090? I remember reading a few months after release it's that nothing was fully capable of handling it.
