Unfortunately, no one is buying a 7900 XTX for AI, mostly not a 5090 either. The 5090 didn’t even work till recently and still doesn’t work with many projects, doubly so for the 7900 XTX.

The fab capacity thing is an issue, but not as much as you’d think since the process nodes are different.

Again, I am trying to emphasize, a lot of this is just Nvidia being greedy as shit. They are skimping on VRAM/busses and gouging gamers because they can.
