First crypto now AI, can the users just asking for a decent GPU catch a break here?
Crypto was limited bad since it only targeted GPU performance. AI targeting DRAM affects EVERYTHING. Phones, TVs, monitors, your router, smartwatches, ANYTHING that runs even a semblance of OS...
Microcontrollers are mostly safe as they use a different structure of RAM (500kB-8MB RAM doesn't need multi-thousand MT/s, so older tech is useful there).
But everything else is fucked.
