“We witnessed NVIDIA testing a 900-watt version of the Ada Lovelace AD102 GPU SKU, which never saw the light of day, so we should take this testing phase with a grain of salt. Often, the engineering silicon is the first batch made for the enablement of software and firmware, while the final silicon is much more efficient and more optimized to use less power and align with regular TGP structures. The current highest-end SKU, the GeForce RTX 4090, uses 450-watt TGP. So, take this phase with some reservations as we wait for more information to come out.”

some water in the building was apparently wet.
And the chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall, and John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache...it's 12:00 here in RFA, one day closer to victory !
 
Just random cool sounding letters ;).
Oh. I had "guessed" that RFQ was "request for quote," an old IBM term for special features, IIRC. So following this logic, maybe some game company wanted to blow away the competition, but they needed a super powerful GPU.
