Comment on NVIDIA Says You're "Completely Wrong" About DLSS 5 Being Slop - Gamers Nexus

It is not, but prohibitive pricing causes potential customers to be more considered in their buying decisions. If I’m looking at graphics cards, and one costs triple the other for AI reasons, some will have the decision made for them by their wallet, and others will decide the AI stuff is not worth more than the whole rest of the PC, leaving only the whales with more money than sense.
Catering only to whales may work for businesses making microtransaction games, because there is no limit to how much a whale might spend there, but no matter how rich a customer is, he only wants one graphics card for his PC, maybe 2.

Have you heard of this new thing called thr “K-Shaped Economy”?
It’s this gross thing where corporations have realized they bled all they they can out of us pleebs and are now resorting in sucking off the rich.

I haven’t heard of the term before, but the notion you’re describing is definitely something I’ve thought and read about some before. Thanks for teaching me something new I can go learn more about!
