“Nvidia has higher prices due to the costs of R&D and high quality components” – meanwhile Nvidia marketing budget:

    Or they just have superior software support that people are willing to pay for.

    I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say they have higher quality components

    Did Nvidia have something to do with that Mythbusters episode

    Was actually expecting the picture to be a bit more impressive

    Why did they need a GPU to do this? Im confused about this entirely.

    This was a Nvidia demonstration on how a GPU performs processes compared to a CPU. Before this they had a single paintball gun shooting each individual cell on after another. This was to show how much more efficiently a GPU can perform multiple processes at once.

    Exactly. Nvidia really has no choice, you see.

    If they didn’t have to spend so much on R&D or high quality components, or even marketing, they would certainly lower their prices. Why? Because they love us.

    this was old nvidia, now nvidia just cares about AI

    Their SGA expenses are a little less than a third of R&D expenses, so yeah I’m gonna say marketing isn’t even close to the costs of R&D + production.
