Workstations are dead. With this kind of CapEx, nobody’s going to be buying N machines with these in them for their entire team, with one card per seat, going mostly unused. They’re going to build a farm of them, or they’re going to rent time on a cluster of them. Either way, that’d make them “server cards”, not “workstation cards.”

Definitely not dead in certain areas - video, 3D, audio, CAD, certain research. And there is more of that work being done than ever.
