What possible consequences could there be? Are people going to start buying GPUs from the competition?

There is no competition. There's no choice for the consumer. You buy nvidia or you don't get to play.

Nvidia's reputation is already in the toilet. They have literally nothing to lose. There's no consequences for their actions.

People may start calling for monopoly abuse investigation in US and EU.

And (sadly) how long will that take, if it happens at all?

People can "start to call" all they want, but it won't matter unless NVIDIA has something to fear.

[calamari4065]

Aren't they already? That's still not much of a consequence. If anything happens, it'll be years from now, which is totally out of scope for quarterly profit management.

[borissk]

Don't think nVidia is a company run for the quarterly profit report.

[calamari4065]

If that were the case, they wouldn't be running these anticompetitive strategies and leaving regular consumers at the mercy of GPU scalpers.

[borissk]

You think anti competitive strategies are only effective for 3 months?

Or scalpers stop their business after 3 months?
