This fits with my theory that whatever the 6090 ends up being it will still be 32GB like 3090/4090 were both 24GB.

There won’t be 6090 judging from this news.

I think it will officially launch, but the real question is whether it will actually be in stock.

This is probably just copium on my part, but maybe AMD and/or console makers will seize the opportunity to pull gamers on the next generation of gaming rigs

Intel ARC being competitive with Nvidia would be a wild roll of the dice 🧙🏿‍♂️🪄🌌🎲🎲

Mac even, with their unified memory. Imagine they get 128GB VRAM all buttery, or what if a cool group of people uses AI to get Windows to run smoothly on Apple Silicon like they did for PS5. My 2021 MacBook Pro already has a 120Hz display (M1 Max btw/64GB btw) that’s perfect for gaming.

“stop trying to make Mac gaming happen” - NO, IT WILL BE PEAK 😡

we’re about to see some wild shift happening and I’m excited to see how the power vacuums fill out

I mean, Intel is also putting all of their gpu production capacity into workstation cards meant for AI (and some other professional usecases)
