The Great NVIDIA Switcheroo | GPU Shrinkflation
Sponsor: ID-Cooling Frozn A720 Black on Amazon https://geni.us/VDnou4Y
GPU prices have crept higher across the board, but NVIDIA's in particular have lost step with what we came to expect from generations of GPU launches. This video expands upon our "RTX 4080 problem" by looking at the entirety of the RTX 50 series, including how the RTX 5070 looks an awful lot like a prior 50-class or 60-class GPU. The video sets some metrics for comparison and defines them as we talk CUDA count against the flagship (and flagship against the max die), price creep, inflation-adjusted GPU prices, and perception of the brand for each card.
