Roland Of Gilead Nvidia was a relatively niche computer parts manufacturer with a share price of less than a dollar until cryptocurrency mining put it in the spotlight. Huh!? The crypto scene really happened in and about 2017. The suggestion that NVIDIA was before then, a less than a dollar per share company, is pure fantasy. Seriously! Niche, C'mon! Reply

Niche, C'mon! Yeah its absolute rubbish. I remember buying nVidia shares for $20 ish in 2005 and selling them for around $80 in 2006 which paid for my masters degree in 2007. LOL Reply
derekullo I'll admit I am/was an Nvidia fanboy growing up Geforce 2 MX, Geforce 3 Ti 500, Geforce 5900 Ultra, GTX 285, Geforce 780 TI, Geforce 1060, Geforce 3080 TI I guess if you consider PC gaming a niche then they did essentially own that niche. ATI historically had buggy drivers and not enough money to devote to R&D and … writing drivers. This of course changed when AMD bought ATI and were able to inject much needed cash into the process. Nvidia's market cap at the end of 2015 was about $17 billion. Growing to over $4 Trillion by 2025 was unexpected! Reply
-Fran- Come on now. We all know nVidia will buy that promising start up Intel. I'm just joking… I hope… Regards. Reply
Eximo PEnns said: Dell (proprietary everything!) and the smaller fish (everything with "Power" in their name has major issues!) but stay away from MSI and Asus….😀 If you think Nvidia, the king of proprietary GPU/Graphics/AI tech won't go all out on making everything proprietary… Heck, they've even made their vBIOS tools proprietary. I'm surprised they haven't announced ceasing partner production of PCIe cards in favor of their all proprietary server solutions. I don't know why any company looking to manufacture hardware would go to assembly only companies like CyberPower and iBuyPower, kind of pointless. If they were shopping around, they would be better off looking at some of the OEM suppliers for laptop boards/chassis. Many of the brands mentioned here also purchase from the likes of Clevo, but many just outsource to Foxconn. Given their vast partnerships with their GPU suppliers like PNY and Foxconn, it would make more sense for them to just keep doing that rather than acquiring. Who knows if their embedded CPU/GPU will really take off with consumers. Reply

JamesJones44 Buying a server maker doesn't make sense. Why go from a fairly high margin GPU designer to a low margin server hardware vendor? That would just be bad business. They would be better off buying a CPU designer and moving into the CPU market which is also high to medium in terms of margin. Obviously they tried this with ARM, but a smaller designer could be had and with the money Nvidia has plus expertise in providing designs for TSMC they could make it viable. Look at what Apple did with PA Semi and Qualcomm with NUVIA. These are the avenues I would spend money on if it were me. Reply
sharkbaitnate84 Nvidia has never, In its entire existence, traded below $1. So just blatantly false text here.Either someone didnt bother to fact check or they asked AI and didnt read that they adjust for splits. Reply
