I know someone who works at Nvidia, and he said the problem is that Moore's law is dead. Apparently the only way we can generate more performance right now is to input more energy and/or increase size.
Obviously that doesn't scale forever, and the 40 series are already fucking massive. So where does that leave us with the 50 series? We need some breakthrough.
The real answer is ARM based systems and a new pcie slot standard that makes the traces closer to the cpu similar to that dell ram standard.
Also I genuinely doubt an architecture as recent as Lovelace is optimized as much as possible
