They removed NVLink to cut down on costs on a feature that is supported by only a handful of games in existence and otherwise useless.

Don’t embarrass yourself over things you don’t know.

OK, and now an actual argument?
Or are you one of those people who unironically believe NVLink enabled memory pooling or things like that?

NVLink doesn’t have to be gaming specific. Anything that requires high band low latency data transfer will benefit from it. There’s no point of 24gigs of vram if you can’t transfer data between gpus faster in a multi gpu setting.

The 300 GB/s, which was its theoretical upper limit of it in a MULTI-GPU workload did not show a significant difference in benchmarks. Please do not gaslight people into believing it did.

Post the benchmarks :) I’m not the one gaslighting here.

Funny how the RTX 6000 ADA doesn’t have NVLink as well

The burden on proof is on you, since you initially claimed that there will be benefits.

Okay. Have a nice day good sir. :)

Not surprising given that they removed NVLink to force multi-gpu users to purchase A6000s
