@ZachsTechTurf

I should probably stop making “news” videos about AI companies and only focus on PC hardware huh?

@SebastianSolver

Imagine paying 2000+ on a GPU only for it to be bricked ☠️

@adith-m7y

At this point Intel should step up game and release sub $400-$500 cards

@wingman0736

This could NEVER be abused EVER by ANYBODY. I have TOTAL confidence in this plan 100%

@Vintagesonic1

Our graphics cards are even spyware now. 😭

@richardratajczyk3561

Some machines have gps built-in so if you sell them out of country they stop working that was 20 plus years ago

@ownageDan

the killswitch is already in - it's called 12vhpwr

@flamityy

A kill switch on GPU’s could be bad for people potentially in North America if it means we all get the same card as China.

@saturnv1970

I cant wait for some hacker to come in and disable my gpu for no reason

@SuperBloopie

Absolutely not. I paid for it; if I want to leave it on and let it infect, it should be my choice to do so. Not someone else’s. They’re just taking away choices.

@jim99hazim76

The kill switch is the 12 pin cable that catch fire

@Kepler2258

Nvidia: adds kill switch
China: Just unplugs Internet before kill switch activates

@CrimsonGamer99

accidentally clicks China in my VPN

My GPU: "im boutta blow 😩"

@iiReaperRBLX

The ryzen 4070 is still always available.

@kenham6742

A few years ago, the US government was concerned that the processing power of a particular gaming system could be used for guided missiles.
It all blew over in just a few years.

@AdamAntium3

As a Nvidia investor yes they dont care about gamers anymore, they dont have to.

@levlzr

It used to be the US claiming Chinese products have trackers and weird stuff on it now the US want to do it too 😂

@KadaverKaBooma

a kill switch wouldn’t work unless it was built into the silicon itself, because if it wasn’t, people can just use a soldering stuff to get it off

@CorneliousRR

I'm so glad I switched to an all AMD build recently

In the '90s, I worked at a tech company just before the tech boom escalated. We had very strict import and export policies to follow in the shipping and receiving department. "Letters of Credit," is a trigger phrase for me still, even decades later.😂 I say all this because we could have gone to jail if our product was shipped to certain countries. And we needed to exercise extra care when shipping to the next tier of countries because of known smuggling to the forbidden countries. By 2024, it no longer shocked me that there were few restrictions in tech distribution despite known IP theft by certain actors. Seeing newer generations suddenly freaking out about restrictions on chips, etc has me laughing. Nothing is new under the sun.
