From miners....
Nvidia margins are up,so they are probably benefiting from the higher prices in some way(even if costs are increased too).
Looks like data centre growth mainly.Originally Posted by Andi-C
They are correct - look at Q4 2020,or even quarter to quarter. Gaming is the biggest absolute increase in both cases.
Wouldn't racks of GPUs in an old warehouse count as a data centre?

In absolute terms 'gaming' just about beats 'data centre' growth over the year, but I don't think the entire year's growth in gaming can be attributed to miners.
heh, maybeWouldn't racks of GPUs in an old warehouse count as a data centre?
What a waste. So these guys spend millions of $ developing RT and Tensor cores only for that part of the core stay idle doing nothing in a crypto farm somewhere in China/USA. AMD and Nvidia should simply fire software engineers, quit and focus on miners while the PC industry looks for someone else less greedy.
In the last six months there has been an $800 million increase in gaming sales,and a $150 million increase in date centre. Most of the data centre increase happened around 6~12 months ago which makes sense as companies started improving their infrastructure as more people started working from home,and need for certain services skyrocketed.
Mining has shot up in the last 4 months or so,and gamers have hardly been able to get many of the new GPUs from launch either. We also knew miners were hoarding cards during the new launches too!
I'm guessing with the new 3060 cards, those Tensor cores will be monitoring usage patterns to work out if the card is mining.
Probably the only places that can justify the cost, also would a mining farm count as a data centre? (it seems like it would but IDK)
They love Bitcoin miners....
gaming cash cow never been so good. nvidia in my books is on the same level as ubisoft, ea and CDPR
