Why do people protect amd so much when nvidia is better? Isnt technology supposed to be about the better choice and not being hipster and supporting the (worse) underdog?
because g is mostly about being a technology hipster so everything popular and good sucks and everything irrelevant and shit is great

Nvidia has better software, AMD has better hardware, that's why AMD has the lead with sx12/vulkan and nvidia is struggling to catch up
>>56460836
Yes, and I want to stop too, but at the same time, if everyone bought NV, we'd be fucked considering AMD is the only competition

*want them (AMD shills) to stop too
I like Nvidia because I made approximately $20,000 on their stock.
Most of /g/'s resident AMD shills are just trolls, shills or hipster socialists who think supporting a non-competitor is better than allowing the free market to run it's course.

Its not the consumers job to keep competiton alive, its the competiton job to keep itself alive, buying amd just so nv doesnt have monopoly is retarded as hell
>>56463258
What dies socialism have to do with a bunch of technology hipster retard

Thats not what I meant, I personally don't buy AMD, I'm just glad there are idiots who willingly buy them because they think they're better cards.

This "support the shittier brand just because its hip" attitude is fucking over the industry more than monopoly
AMD GPUs are OK though I prefer Nvidia. I think only retards shill for AMD CPUs though.
/g/'s AMD fanboyism goes like this.
>1. post unsourced random bar chart from some irrelevant sperg hardware benchmark for non-consumer cards
>2. convince gullible retards to buy AMD
>3. whine to /g/ about how buggy and unsupported and a pain in the ass their shitty AMD cards are
>4. learn nothing, goto 1

Really? I saw more 1060 hype that made the 10% lead over the 480 bigger than it is. Only delusionals thought the 480 would be a 200$ 980ti.
>>56460836
all I see is loss
>>56463350
> Its not the consumers job to keep competiton alive, its the government's job to split up monopolies
FTFY. Too bad this often isn't working because corruption and pseudo competition.
>>56460836
even if I I buy your premise that NVIDIA is better (I don't) it's a fact that AMD spend more of their money on R&D and open systems while NVIDIA openly abuses the market in cynical and calculated ways
