theres a demand for graphics GPUs, and its a profitable business and nvidia being a publicly listed entity - worst case scenario imo is an eventual hive off the graphics GPU unit and then they put it up for sale
a scenario where nvidia shutters the graphics GPU business is in the realm of impossibility

None of the above?

People forget that at the end of the day nVidia are a profit making organisation. Its becoming quite apparent that GPUs for gaming are becoming more and more a side of the desk activity for nVidia. I suspect that a big part of why they maintain some skin in the gaming world is because of some uncertainty around the long term viability of being all in on AI.

If anything 'Sheeple' customers are probably keeping gaming GPUs alive, if sales were poor I could see nVidia not bothering. I think its naive to think that customers can vote with their wallets in a way which made nVidia develop and sell better GPUs at cheaper prices. Not for what is 10% of their bottom line.
GPU sales are still a meaningful revenue stream for Nvidia, and there's work from AMD to have CUDA processing on their GPUs.

Also shouldn't rule out that other companies are already creating purpose-built AI compute, which will eat into Nvidia's usefulness.

Far too early for any drastic decisions, and GPU sales for gaming will remain highly profitable until either AMD/Intel become more competitive, or people just refuse to pay stupid prices (this will never happen).

Hopefully there will be mitigation from coil whine. I do remember of few members of this thread getting through a few units before finding the one.
 
I knew straight away what you meant. AMD will find a way of not delivering that though :cry:
Wouldn't be surprised if that is what happens. The right hand does what it always does but the left can't figure out how to switch pictures on the arrow keys, end result.. well... rather limp. Sad really when the hardware is just ready to go given the right opportunity.

My birthday month. If that delivers on the rumour, no excuses not to spoil myself at launch then.
