It's definitely still a focus. Stop being stupid.

They're a big multi-biilion dollar company. They want more money, not less money, and gaming is still a big part of their portfolio. (15+%)

Also, if/when the AI bubble crashes, gaming will always be there for them. So they need to keep innovating in that field.

Which part of it’s no longer the primary focus do you not understand?

15+% of their revenue stream isn't a "novelty legacy," which is what you stated.

Wow. Ok let's spell it out for you.

GOING-FORWARD-IN-THE-FUTURE. The product we're talking about which is the 5090 and it has not been launched yet, it's a FUTURE product - as of this post.

It is very clear that Nvidia is no longer aligning its gaming business as its primary focus, but neither are they eradicating it. Will gaming GPUs continue to be a part of Nvidia's future? Absolutely. But to what extent? We don't know, that's speculative. What I think will happen is that it'll be a novelty legacy.

We cool now?
