Who uses which gpus?

[Helpful Tech Witch]

Im genuinely curious who uses what company's gpus, before things change with the new gpu launches. REMEMBER: one brand per company vote.

Correct me if im wrong for use of "brand" and "company" in the poll

I'm interested to see how the next generation shakes out. AMD and Nvidia trade blows right now in the low to mid-range, while AMD doesn't have anything to compete with something like a 2080Ti, but rumors suggest that Navi 2 might actually give even a 3080Ti (or 3090, as it might be called) a run for it's money. That's just rumors, though, so obviously salt should be applied liberally.

The mythical 3090 seems to have 2 chips, if rumors are true

-uses Nvidia in main rig, AMD in bedside pc-

-has multiple brand of GPU plugged into main rig-

 

... Yes

Maybe allow multi choice?

ummm.... what one is the main? like, numbers would be skewed if i let multi choice. One person has 10 pcs with 10 difrent brands, split across amd ans nvidia, when someone has one amd pny gpu.

New rumor out that says the 3090 will be the 2190.  Rumors are like roaches. We apparently will know at least some stuff in a few weeks.   Unless it’s just another marketing “event” and nothing useful is revealed again.  I personally am not even going to start caring until the next AMD cards are out as well and in the hands of reviewers to compare them against each other.  Late 2020 maybe.

I need multiple choice for this.  My main rig is using Nvidia and my wife's is AMD. Kind of unfair on the selection.  And ignore my signature at the bottom.  Haven't updated in a bit.

I find brand loyalty to be near worthless with GPUs. At any given point a company can produce a good or terrible product.  The only gpu manufacturer I know of with a rep is astek, and their rep is to make GPUs that fit unusual size requirements.  There are a couple with bad reps I guess.

I didn't say anything about brand loyalty

True.

 

 It has that ring though. “who uses which gpu company” “who uses which gpu brand” Might be possible to figure out what a given user has by what brand is chosen.  Most of them were really good at a particular point and bad at another.  I’ve got a wind force 970 for example, that was really well reviewed for noise when it came out and was a quiet card.  I looked at wind force 5700xts though and they were not considered good. I wound up with a procolor 580 because it was simultaneously decently reviewed and on sale, and my 970 had a massive problem with my monitor and win10.

I was more looking at who uses amd vs nvidia rn. the brand was a after thought.
