    What is this… “Nvidia’s flagship RTX 3090 GPU”? Are we in back in 2020? Half a decade ago? Is this a joke? Even then, it wasn’t the flagship, the 3090 Ti was.

      It appears you’ve missed the point here, which is that it turns out you can use older GPUs in creative ways to get a lot more out of them than people realized. Having latest chips isn’t the bottleneck people thought it was.

        If that’s the point then that’s the entire GPU used for mining then ML revolution, thanks to CUDA mostly, that already happened in 2010 so that’s even older, that’d 15 yeas ago.

        What I was highlighting anyway is that it’s hard to trust an article where simple facts are wrong.
