Nvidia is dominating with high prices; if you force them to lower their prices, wouldn't it make it even harder for the also-rans to compete? What you are asking for is simply to save money, but that is very different than antitrust issues.

An antitrust case against Nvidia would not lower prices by forcing Nvidia to sell at lower prices. In fact, selling below cost is itself a practice that can be subject to antitrust scrutiny.[1]

Rather, a case like this would lower prices by increasing competition. Other commenters have mentioned that if CUDA opened up, that would help companies like AMD become more competitive. Right now, if you want CUDA, you are forced to buy a GPU from Nvidia. So broader CUDA interoperability would benefit "also-rans" and consumers too.

Nvidias competitors have decent hardware for half the price. Its the software moat that is holding them back

Is the DoJ planning to sue MS over the Win32 API as well?

MS hasn't tied the Win32 API to hardware that you can only buy from them as far as I know.
