We went through a phase of high-power processors years ago with the Pentium 4 series and its offshoots, then things started getting more efficient instead. I wonder if we will soon see the same for GPUs or if we’ll be stuck on a high-power plateau for a long time.
I don’t see any route to more efficiency. The Pentiums were architecturally “broken” and a step back by Intel made the Core models more efficient. There’s not really a way to do that for Nvidia.
