Didn’t stop my brother from buying his wife a 5060ti build for sketchup. I suggested he give her his 4070ti and use a 9070xt instead because why buy a garbage card and… nope… nvidia only. I literally said “You could go with amd and just give her the 4070ti” and he literally replied with “fuck no U_U”
Eventually nvidia will make mistakes and probably end up like intel on the consumer side, but I have a coworker I just helped with a build who refused to even consider AMD even after the intel catastrophe, she’s too much of a brand loyalist (not at all a gamer, IT infrastructure worker.)
People have shit on AMD for so long and to be fair for a while AMD really was behind, but it feels like the script has flipped and the people in my circles haven’t realized it. I know the overall consumer market has been going towards amd processors but I just don’t see AMD winning on the graphics front.
Guessing we’ll see AMD keep nvidia grounded on gpu prices to an extent though since AMD doesn’t really have much market share in the AI/ML space but they’ll certainly allow for more price inflation since it inflates their margin.
Their rocm driver stack for computing isn’t as good as CUDA, but they’re closing the gap year after year. Their open GPU drivers on linux are far superior to Nvidia
I just switched from an RTX 3070ti to an RX 9070XT and I stopped getting weird graphics glitches constantly. Nvidia drivers have gotten worse than AMD drivers over the years, even on Windows

lol what competition.
I have amd but trying to convince anybody that AMD is just as good is impossible.
AMD is actually better now considering there’s a very high chance Nvidia is vibe coding their drivers.
I’m strongly considering selling my 4070 super and picking up a 9070xt. I’m sick to death of NVidia and their garbage. Hope they fucking bankrupt.
I agree.

That’s exactly my point?!
There is currently none, but now they are opening up a void to allow one in.
