Could you imagine being in orbit during an AI datacenter kessler collapse, and just getting smoked by an rtx 5070 travelling at mach fuck?
There'd be nothing less than gold plated B300s in a space datacenter. If they're spending billions flying it up there, they're not going to be putting mid-range consumer GPUs in there. The gold plating probably doesn't even do anything for radiation shielding, the AI just told them to add it to help prop up the AI bubble.
The goal is that its single digits millions to fly it up there. In practice, it'll be 10s of millions to start.
No credit for partial answers, maggot. This is an RTX 5070 Ti with 16G of GDDR7. It was shot out of a grok datacenter in heliosynchronous orbit at 1.3% the speed of light. You know what that means? That means Kevin O'Leary is the most dangerous son of a bitch in space.
