I am getting old I think. I watch some of the sub-30 years old people on youtube drooling over the latest graphics card and having an almost orgasmic ecstasy about the latest tally of cuda cores (or the AMD equivalent) and I wonder why do I need a billion cuda cores. I have more than enough difficulty with 4 cores on my i7 intel chip and now they want my graphics card to have a billion (sure I am exaggerating) cuda cores!! What good will that do for me? It is not as if I am going to build a 3D model of the entire universe down to subatomic detail is it? Bah humbug is what I am beginning to think! All they want is for me to spend my money buying something I haven't got a clue about using beneficially.

A cuda core is something that graphics cards from nvidia have and that enthusiasts think is wonderful the more the better apparently ...

Selling people stuff they don't really need just because it has MORE SHINY than the one they are currently using is hardly a new thing, no?
