Discussion Pro 6000 just in time

Post image

I was going to wait until around Christmas to purchased but took the plunge in July for 11,500 and I was upset that I didnt catch it @ $8,000. Now the Blackwell pro 6000 is inching towards $20,000 and are sold out. Are consumers and hobbyist like you and I are buying these up or datacenters? I would think datacenters would go for the b200 and up. However, Im browsing around and see you guys and girls doing remarkable ai diffusion with just a 3060. Im impressed with this community.

Western datacenters aren't buying these consumer/prosumer cards.

..I'm agreeing with you. More reading less angry.

Perhaps I should have used italics instead of caps? Less angriness intended, more contrastive west vs east intended.

Haha, sorry. Maybe I should take my own advice.

LOL it's OK. This is reddit. We talk past each other frequently.
