nvidia

So it really depends, whether you except the gamers to go on spending spree (nvidia and intel would certainly love that), or not.

Especially swapping nVidia <-> AMD drivers is a recipe for disaster.

I wonder if for Nvidia it's really about making sure the consumer cards don't work on VMware and the other commercial hypervisors.

My Lenovo Y50 has an nVidia GPU with Optimus switching.

I decided to stick with T-series when I saw the nvidia graphics card.

I'd agree, closed-source nvidia drivers for linux are better than closed-source AMD drivers.

NVidia really, really, sucks for integer compute.

I've had nvidia cards in the past, as well as UT2004 which had a native linux version, and it worked well enough, but performance was still less than half what it was in windows (with the closed-source nvidia driver in linux).

Still, I personally would be reluctant to drop big money on a consumer Nvidia card thinking that I'd always have the ability to use it under KVM with the latest driver.

There was obviously a reason that the tippers (Dell & Nvidia insiders) leaked confidential information to the defendants, two hedge fund managers named Newman and Chiasson.

And AWS GPU instances don't have the right GPU, either; there's a very specific line of AMD GPUs that can accelerate the blockchain hashing algorithm, and AWS uses nVidia.

This looks awesome, and saves someone the headache of trying to setup the VPN, but is not using the nvidia GPU's ability to use hardware encoding which is much faster than going the CPU route in most cases.

Nvidia has done a good job with pushing GPU Flops, and the bottleneck right now is on the network side.

Nvidia could choose to close this particular hole at any time.
