As a outsider who works in a different industry but has been an on-off consumer for Nvidia GPUs, I am curious what Nvidia staff present and former think of the company's monopoly and attitude to the market
It's interesting to see channels like Gamers Nexus pointing out the strong arming of reviewers under threat of losing access to engineers / SMEs within the company

For us its frustrating to see continuous price hikes as well, and the way GPUs are being marketed. GPUs are double the cost of what they were a decade ago, and I dont get the logic of something like the RTX 5050... it fills a niche nobody asked for at a price point nobody wants. Why have a low mid spec GPU at upper mid spec prices, with a power connector requirement to boot. At least the 3050 didnt need separate power connecotrs
