The right wing has been obsessed with defending quackery for decades. They have an inherent mistrust of anyone that knows things beyond their understanding.

Only on very specific tasks. The 4090 and 5090 are great but they are expensive, huge, loud, use a lot of power and release a lot of heat. They are great for gaming and many other tasks.

The top end Apple M chips are expensive but are very cool, quiet and come in relatively tiny computers. They’re not really for gaming but are adequate. They’re built for prosumers.

A sheet of shiny copper is also pretty cool.

MB manufacturers are leaving money on the table. They can pair it with a transparent GPU and sell it as a combo.

I’d love a transparent AM5 motherboard.
