I think it's maybe time for game developers to spend more effort/time on gameplay and a bit less on AAA+++ graphics that only top GPUs can handle. Maybe hard targeting iGPU/APU for mid-level support in games.
For that matter, plenty of room to remake/reskin older (fun) games... Bring the Black Mesa effect to lots of existing games.

Nvidia is chasing trends again, they did it for crypto mining, and I bet some new fad will come up soon. It looks like the gaming industry needs to move to something else than the current GPU ecosystem in the long term. Intel Arc and Moore Threads have tried, but we really need a new way of designing and rendering graphics.

I am starting to find it funny. Even if it is sad... Well thankfully Finnish has term for this surkuhupaisa...

I do feel there might be a day of reckoning where Nvidia bet the farm too hard on this AI bubble and it ends up blowing up in their face.
I hope gamers, systems integrators, and regular PC enthusiasts don't have memories of goldfish and go back to business as usual. It needs to hurt Nvidia in the pocketbook.
Will this happen? Unlikely, but hope springs eternal.

AMD will eat their lunch, and are. If AMD can properly replace CUDA, rtx hdr, they could win the market.
