I think he means with some "NVidia=Best" regardless of price or performance. And if they (AMD) cost less they, as consumers, are missing a change to vote with their wallets for better pricing all round. Dunno though.

I got ptsd from getting black screens on a 280X dual monitor setup back in the day.

They probably could charge the same at this point purely because 99% of the people that want 3000 series cards just can't get them.
If I recall correctly each of those cards beat AMD's equivalent at the time.

Good thing you weren't running my Kepler Titan then, you'd probably have topped yourself.
Soldato
I know right?
@JediFragger will know the gang members but it sounds like the thing they come out with time and time again. It really is sad if you genuinely think like that!

So again Nvidia are free to price hike as they see fit because they don't have competition? I suppose you think it's OK for AMD to up Ryzen 5000 by an arbitrary 50 notes because Intel are an embarrassment?
The difference with Nvidia is you could fix it in the control panel, AMD never exposed the option regarding content detection.
Bingo.

You sir, are correct. I guess if some struggle reading that then its why we still have the 80% mindshare.
There is a small subset on here that abide by this strange rule that AMD exist to make their nvidia cards cheaper (as they will never buy AMD hardware). So when they state nonesense like above, what they want is 'competition' but even if an AMD is better, they still buy the nvidia.. cos of yanno 'reasons'.
So its basically a lie. Why would AMD compete so you can buy a fractionally discounted nvidia card? really lol.
Soldato
The door's on your left...
You don't agree with my reasoning or you think I am justifying Nvidia's behavior?
Soldato
So you had a bad experience once on a 2x0 card and now they will never be forgiven? I owned one (290X) and it was a good card. Also that was what 8 years ago, the only justifying here is your nvidia purchase not the other way around.

Please leave me out of this discussion..
I was hinting at perf parity with 3080 in DX11.. nowhere did I say it is better as you are alluding
Also I was unsure whom you were conversing with?

Wut?

After about 10 years of using Intel and Nvidia exclusively, I’m looking forward to building a Ryzen based system with hopefully one of the new Navi cards.
If the performance is there and the pricing is competitive I’ll be happy to try and shoehorn both into my Dr Zaber case.
I have a 1660 Super and a OG 1660 in my server. I’ve gone through a 1080, 980, 780, 2x 480, 2x 8800. Bought a 970 for my dad and briefly had a Quadro P620 to play with. I’ve bought at least 11 Nvidia GPUs in the last 10 years and maybe 1-2 from AMD because they’ve had nothing worthwhile whenever I’ve looked.
I’m not sure I can listen to any more of Jensens **** after all these years so I really do hope things are about to change.

I am actually on a used 270X right now while I wait for the 3080 (sold my 1080Ti ~month ago), after seeing they explicitly fixed the dual monitor black screen bug, haven't had any issues so far, so I would recommend them for gaming, but for my use case I use a lot of Nvidia-only features like CUDA and I've found the Nvidia settings to be better eg: when changing color settings ingame.
The only way AMD can lure me to cancel the 3080 and get a 6900 is if the price/performance ratio is very favorable.
Did you see the video Rroff posted on one of the threads about what Jensen said, maybe he post it.
Soldato
It's certainly come across that way. If not, don't open the door
