As a gamer, I selfishly wish that Nvidia would go back to being a gaming company instead of a crypto and AI compute company. I miss MSRP graphics cards :(

I also miss sane MSRPs... I thought computers were supposed to get cheaper over time, not more expensive.
That stop happening a while ago. Newer chip are more expensive, as with memory.
Gentle reminder a lot of mid - lower end graphics card are far from MSRP. And arguably it is crypto and AI compute on server that partly subsided some of the R&D cost on consumer GPU.
