    Desktop pricing is its own dumpster fire, but when did laptop GPU pricing get so much worse?

    Spending $1,100 to get a laptop with an entry-level x060 GPU feels insane, especially with AMD’s integrated GPU technology getting fairly competitive.

      Well we can’t risk some startup somewhere using one of those fancy distributed AI projects and a bunch of cheaper laptops with decent GPUs after all! You’re not thinking of the poor poor NVIDIA shareholders!
