    Nobody trains on a GUI desktop though. Training is done on a cluster. And the kind of models that can be run on a consumer grade GPU… Nvidia doesn’t care about. They’re focused on selling 50k a pop cards to AI companies not fixing the Linux desktop for $600 card users.

    It’s pretty clear that Linux users should buy AMD or Intel GPUs if you want to support even a semi open source world

      I think no one super serious trains on a desktop but there are bunch of hobbyists that are going to start appearing as tools become more friendly and AI becomes more mainstream. It’s still a decent market and nVidia would do well to make their cards more friendly on Linux in general because it’s finally gaining some decent popularity.
