Probably not any time soon? China’s buying 5090s in bulk to literally remove the chips and transplant them onto server form factor boards for AI.
The stocks crashed because there’s so much competition now and nobody can expect to take the whole market. Deepseek, Qwen, GLM, Kimi are ALL way cheaper than the US counterparts and quite comparable. It’s not exciting anymore. When Deepseek R1 came out, everyone thought that Deepseek was going to completely take everything over. Now pretty much everyone is getting close to Claude in performance.
Never. Western capitalists will make Chinese hardware illegal before they allow cheaper goods to undercut their profits. It’s exactly what they’re doing in the auto industry, why should tech be different?
I’m beginning to suspect never. The industry (read nvidia) got taste for selling stuff in bulk to those who don’t care about price and/or quality. They don’t want to return to the world where regular people (ew) were their primary source of income. They will find new scam to use their cards on.
When people give Intel a chance and when other companies start making good GPU’s. I knowo it’s terribly hard but given enough price hikes it WILL be profitable and it will happen.
Cheap GPUs when?

The only country that might do that is the us. There are many western capitalists happy to buy from a competitive global market.
Already did it with phones.

That’s… that’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.
Mild discounts, yes. Cheap again? No.

Oh you sweet summer child. Do you actually think the price of GPUs are going to come down?!?
Only if you’re fine with writing your own drivers for Moore’s Threads GPUs…
Not until we recover from bailing out the US AI industry, which will probably take at least a few years.
