Nvidia are a dominant force in graphics right now, PC gaming is on the rise and we are on the verge of a big shift in components and performance next year, with die shrinks, HBM memory and emerging VR technology.

May be interesting to some to get background info from CEO co-founder himself, on how Nvidia started out to where they are now. Video is from 2013, since then dominance has increased.


 
Cheers for that Boom and a very interesting and insight into Jen Hsun. He has a passion for what he does and that is a good thing in my books.

Yeah I like this guy, really driven, intelligent. Seems natural and open speaking with ease at conf etc.

Changing the subject for a sec hopefully AMD get their pricing / stock levels in order soon and we see some competition. That seems to be what is holding them back, Nvidia are a long ways ahead atm imho.

Anyways roll on Pascal.
 
He's brilliant - there were a few bits that tickled me when he started talking about DRAM IC infrastructure and production cost obstacles at the time. "Until eventually you end up with a 1,000 dollar GPU which isn't really a consumer price point."

Oh really, Jen? Really?

:D

In an industry full of porkie pie tellers. Intel stating that 5ghz on air would be possible on devils canyon cpu's, AMD calling fury x an overclockers dream. Tbh I take all the sales blurbs with a spoonful of salt.:D
 
I like the fact that he's a proper engineer, at the company he founded. As opposed to these journeyman CEOs who go from company to company (the CEO merry-go-round). It always strikes me as odd when a CEO from one industry ends up at a company with a completely different market/product. Then in a couple years they hop to somewhere completely different again.

An engineer panicking trying to get off stage blurted it out, not an actual vetted claim by PR/marketing. No I won't let this dumb meme continue.

Huddy said it had 4 kilobits of RAM. I don't see anyone complaining about paying £500 for a 4Kb card anywhere? :confused:
 
Had dinner with him a few years ago in Monaco, very smart guy and shows. VR is going to be pretty impressive if the game developers get some killer titles for it which I suspect will happen. :)

One of amd's main gpu engineers no less. He's done plenty of talks on stage before so no he wasn't panicking trying to get off it.
 
Absolutely brilliant

The guy loves what he is doing and is a really nice person.

The CEO of AMD really needs to talk to people like this and get across her message.
