Your post strangely sounds like Nvidia primarily makes graphic cards for consumers.

Last time I checked, they couldn't produce enough H100s/GB100s to satisfy demand from everyone and their mother running a data center. And their most recent consumer hardware offerings have been repeatedly called a "paper launch" - probably because consumer hardware isn't a priority, given the price (and profit) delta.

I read their comment as meaning that Nvidia should prioritise a specific kind of consumer/prosumer hardware.

Nobody is running H100s at home, nor are most video companies running ones. So the choice for them is to "rent" them from Google, or... invest a lot in almost impossible to obtain Nvidia hardware? One has lower initial cost, and is available now.

Thanks for the (possible) clarification.

But as long as Google isn't their _only_ customer, why would Nvidia care?
