But what if nvidia used those fuses because an A100 had too many fabrication faults so it could only be a cheaper mining card?

(which is the more likely scenario because they can make much more money on enterprise/datacenter products, see DRAM)

Glad I jumped on these cards, excited to give this a try!

Hard to believe $1k was a deal a few months ago (and $200 before then).

I just wish they had something like this for older Tesla p100s, p4s...

Before you get too excited about the CMP 170HX, the prices had already skyrocketed and that card doesn't a cooler on it and is designed for a server cooler that sounds like a jet engine. Also most of the 80GB vram unlocks have bad RAM and that is the reason they were locked in the first place, otherwise they would have became A100s.

Anyways, that's what I tell myself as I taste my bowl of sour grapes.

The ebay auction headlines have already rewritten themselves.
