Dog for scale Memes

Remember when GPUs were these cute little cards that fit in your hand? Yeah, neither does your PC case. Using a dog for scale is genius because it really drives home how absurd this has gotten. We went from a tiny passive-cooled card that could barely render Minesweeper to absolute behemoths that need their own structural support brackets and a dedicated power plant. The real kicker? That smallest card probably cost $50 and lasted a decade. The dog-sized one? That'll be your entire paycheck, plus you'll need to upgrade your PSU, your case, possibly your desk, and maybe reinforce your floor joists. But hey, at least you can run Crysis now... and also train AI models while heating your entire apartment in winter. Fun fact: Modern high-end GPUs can draw over 450W of power. That's more than most gaming consoles, mini-fridges, and your will to live combined.
