There's a lot of shitposting and shilling on this board, but can we all just be serious for a moment and thank Nvidia for what they do? We all love technology here, and Nvidia are delivering GPUs that offer incredible performance, both in terms of raw numbers and in terms of perf per watt.
The new Pascal cards are quite frankly incredible. A GTX 1080 delivers 30%+ more performance than a GTX 980 Ti whilst consuming 100W less power, and 50%+ more performance than the competing brand's best card whilst consuming 150W less. That's amazing, and they don't get enough credit for it.
Not to mention that they offer the best value for money too in the lower ranges, with a GTX 1060 offering more performance than a GTX 980 - previously the world's most powerful graphics card - for just $250. And only consuming ~100W in the process. It's an incredible achievement.
It's time to put aside silly biases and acknowledge everything that Nvidia do for us.

THANK YOU BASED NVIDIA
It's only freetards and literal paid poo in loos that shill AMD. Even they probably use Nvidia secretly.
nvidia is breddy gud, but amd certainly does async compute much better. nvidia cards shit their pants with async compute. I'm really curious to see how good (or not) vega is and whether nvidia can get hardware level async compute into the 1100 series or at the latest the 1200 series. there is no way dx12 won't be everywhere by the time the 1200 series is around
Nvidia lacks a kawaii anime mascot, so it's shit
