Trading nvidia monopoly for AMD monopoly or the duopoly of this two it's a huge problem anyway.

raytracing is still meh-meh tech, works in like 5 games to make them prettier

Probably will never going to be good.

cuda conquered sciences over 15 years of non stop grants of : use cuda to do stuff and get 50k for grad students, that was a pure masterclass in captivating audience and developing something useful as well

Yeah, even with gamers gone(one can dream) this alone made nvidia the choice for the garbage generator.

that true, but i'm more baffled that like amd cards were never bad-bad, they were average and still made some sense for a price, it's not like majority bying nvidia buys 80-90 cards, they buy like 60 and rave about dlss that looks like shit on 1080p monitor. sure upper side of the market or encoding youtube bros, that makes sense, but the lower price doesn't, it's just halo-marketing seems to me (again, before later dlss, now it kinda works on lower cards), my general frustration with marketing efficiency is in 680-980 gen and 2080-3080, they were dogshit, 5080 is as well.
