End user machines will be an Nvidia GPU and some kind of CPU to control it and run the user interface. Preferably with a Linux OS, who makes the CPU will matter no more than the one that runs your car engine.

Actually, there currently is stiff competition with machines with the latest generation APUs and Unified Memory from both AMD and Apple. These machines have been on the market for months in the case of AMD and years in the case of Apple. Nvidia is already a little late to the party, but I expect them to become a major player.

In the past 10 years there have been mostly incremental improvements in local hardware. If it were not for the massive AI Server Farm build-out and hoarding of memory and storage by those building them causing huge price increases, these powerful computers would likely already be selling in large numbers.

Nvidia system on a chip CPU.

NVIDIA is heavy into software. A whole new world for IT’S.

And my 64GB I9 5080 is only 7 months old.

Depends on what you want to do.
