Why would anyone buy AMD graphics card? What's the appeal?

>>59619499
nVidia is even better in Vulkan. You can check it yourself. The nVidia Vulkan drivers are better and more stable and support all extensions. Same with OpenGL. nVidia supports 4.5 and the drivers are much better than AMD. Literally check any gamedev blog and you can confirm it.

What the fuck are you smoking?

Nvidia at most gets 10 fps from Vullkan, while amd gets over 20, rx 480 gets 40.

It's over for Nvidia.

More VRAM that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg for GPGPU applications.

Why the fuck should i care about power effifiency?

Polaris has adequate power consumption. It's a non-issue for both manufacturers. Not even worth bringing up.

t. NEET

>>59619664
This actually proves my point. nVidia is better than AMD. Plus, Vulkan is not some game changer its hyped up to be.

>>59619725
Nah. I work and i the power my computer draws literally doesnt matter. Its no money

>>59619692
That's a niche field.

>video shows that amd shits on nvidia on vullkan
>This actually proves my point

man you re one dumb fuck.

Why would anyone willingly shill for a company online?
Serious question, because you're either being paid or you're a cuck.

>>59619796
Show me one chart where AMD is at the top. AMD gets shit on in OpenGL and DirectX everytime 480 barely beats 970 in Vulkan.

>>59619821
OP here. I hate nVidia myself. They deprecated my card with no driver updates. But even then, I see no point in AMD cards except 8gb memory.

>>59619843

>what is relativity
amd doesnt have to be at the top to be better, because nvidia ones cost signifiantly more.

fact is that a r9 390 not only is cheaper than a 970, but shits on it big time on vullkan.

>>59619882
>I hate nvidia so I went only to try and convince people to buy nvidia
Again you're either nvidia marketing or you're shilling for a company that doesn't even know you exist

>>59619416
Because I can get similar performance for a lot cheaper? Is this b8?

>>59620067
How? Tell me.

OP is actually looking to buy himself a gpu, and baits us to do his homework

>>59619416
Kill yourself nvidia shill.

>>59619416
I do not know, I did this mistake twice, I regret it everday. After 20 years, the best gpu I ever had was Geforce 2 mx 400 and Geforce 7600Go.

WIth amd.

I had radeon hd 4890 1gb, it was eating ~180w, now I have r7 250x, it has similar performance, eats 100w less but is 2 times more noisy.

I do not know what the fuck.

Another issues with r7 250x, every single video with 60fps lag, it looks like it stop for 1s every few seconds. I thought it was driver or os issues but no matter if its win 7 or 10 its one big shit.

This and Freesync.

>>59620067
maybe in the usa, but anywhere else a nvidia card is the same price or cheaper AND faster

>>59619416
> nVidia beats them in every category and price point
it's not. RX480 is cheaper and has more memory than 1060 6GB.

>>59620231
you forgot to mention that it's sometimes way slower than a 1060 and only outperforms it in doom
