Won’t happen anytime soon. Even if AI bubble popped today, the companies that remain make AI a household name will still be scooping up chips for decades.
Probably not any time soon? China’s buying 5090s in bulk to literally remove the chips and transplant them onto server form factor boards for AI.
The stocks crashed because there’s so much competition now and nobody can expect to take the whole market. Deepseek, Qwen, GLM, Kimi are ALL way cheaper than the US counterparts and quite comparable. It’s not exciting anymore. When Deepseek R1 came out, everyone thought that Deepseek was going to completely take everything over. Now pretty much everyone is getting close to Claude in performance.
Never. Western capitalists will make Chinese hardware illegal before they allow cheaper goods to undercut their profits. It’s exactly what they’re doing in the auto industry, why should tech be different?
I’m beginning to suspect never. The industry (read nvidia) got taste for selling stuff in bulk to those who don’t care about price and/or quality. They don’t want to return to the world where regular people (ew) were their primary source of income. They will find new scam to use their cards on.
When people give Intel a chance and when other companies start making good GPU’s. I knowo it’s terribly hard but given enough price hikes it WILL be profitable and it will happen.
You can buy a 16gb v100 in a pcie card for under 400usd or just the gpu for 220usd, unfortunately the price jumps 3x minimum if you want a 32gb version
I guess you could buy a bc250 or a gameboy if thats important for you, but i doubt theyll show up as a result of chinas datacenter failing so youll just have to wait even more then
I’d prefer a gpu meant to drive displays because my friends aren’t LLMs and all this absurd garbage has made it impossible to buy 5090s without a mortgage.
I’d wager the people asking for cheap GPUs above want them for the same.
Cheap GPUs when?

There is still the problem of making money.

Already did it with phones.
The only country that might do that is the us. There are many western capitalists happy to buy from a competitive global market.

That’s… that’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.
Mild discounts, yes. Cheap again? No.
Oh you sweet summer child. Do you actually think the price of GPUs are going to come down?!?
CheaPUs
Ill take two cheap gpus please

no thanks, I’d prefer a GPU that can actually process graphics AND DISPLAY THEM…
Do these support Optimus to redirect the video output? Could be an option if it’s cheap enough.
nah, I don’t want to eat the leftovers of nvidia’s AI slop machine, I want a gpu that’s for graphics the WAY GOD INTENDED

Only if you’re fine with writing your own drivers for Moore’s Threads GPUs…
Not until we recover from bailing out the US AI industry, which will probably take at least a few years.
