Podcast #806 - NVIDIA Blackwell uArch, RTX 5090 Power Draw, The End of 8GB GPUs, AI for raster, ASUS BTF power

NVIDIA's latest GPUs are almost here, but we can already tell you that 12GB is the new 8GB. Arc is the true way! (Ok, maybe not, but Josh did buy one.) And, of course, 3dfx had it all figured out with their external power supply for the Voodoo 6000. (note the thumbnail)

Microsoft is bringing more AI to raster pipeline, VLC is bringing more AI to just videos, the RTX 50 series will be incredibly powerful and difficult to power, but ASUS might have "The Way". All that and more in this show.
