I wonder if soon we can get lab grown gpus for cheap before marketing makes them cost the same as blood gpus.

    China mass produces lab grown diamonds that are indistinguishable from real ones. The diamond industry has put a lot of effort into convincing people they can tell real from fake, or else why would anyone pay "real" prices.

    Sort of funny there are constant mainstream news stories about the huge performance gap between "real" american GPUs and fake "chinese" GPUs.

    The current (manufactured) hot thing in diamonds is highlighting flaws, like minor changes in color, to prove that it's a natural diamond. It's a real 180° from previous marketing that marked up "flawless" diamonds.

    Or, "Swarovski crystal", which is glass, not diamond.

    As for the "fake Chinese GPUs", yeah they're ripoffs, and they're improving their manufacturing process to catch up with the US very quickly.
