gollark: They are also making datacenter cards, which were delayed because lol no working 7nm.
gollark: Soon apparently we get "Arc Alchemist", a gaming-oriented card, which is meant to be bigger and have hardware raytracing/matrix multiplication units.

gollark: They've begun releasing discrete GPUs.
