AMD Wants To Crash Nvidia's GTX 980 & 970 Launch Party

[CarlosRex]

Do you think it's fun if your friend shows up at your birthday party and starts handing out invitations for THEIR party to all your other friends?

 

AMD is just desperate to get attention and more customers.

First of all AMD is not actually stealing audience members from Game24 and telling them to go someplace else. They're encouraging their fans to attend.

Second of all nothing's wrong with my friend asking my other friends to attend his birthday party, in fact I'd go myself and tell them to go as well.

I think it is a great idea. Someone better stream that shit for lawlz.

@Snickerzz Its in Indiana! There is never anything in Indiana. 

[Jodomcfrodo]

But that's no fun !

Plus AMD has always thrown gaffes at Nvidia even during the ATi days.

Do you see Nvidia pulling stuff like this now? No, because they're mature. 

[The Robot]

LOL, AMD is such a troll.

that and because they have no reason to

[Jodomcfrodo]

that and because they have no reason to

Nvidia already has 5 times as much money (I think). They're just laughing at AMD ATM.

[Heisenbleurgh]

Double-edged sword. If amd were to release an inferior product the backlash would be hilarious.

lots of people are calling amd assholes but i dont really get whats so bad about it. amd just wants some of their fans to wear red to nvidia's game 24 that will increase participation of nvidia's event and its all in good humored fun its not like nvidia is going to lose money over this so calm down people

It is just in bad taste. I'm sure there is a limit of people who can go. And no doubt it will be full either way, Just advertising at another companies reveal is being a little assholish.

No, but they used to have stupid skits too, at one point they simultaniously made fun of their product AND their consumers, which IMHO is worse than making fun of a competitor:

AMD isn't being immature, they aren't hurting Nvidia in any way. They are actually helping them. I see no harm in this. I'm sure it will end in many kicks and giggles to be shared among fellow enthusiasts anyway.

how is it advertising they didnt tell people to wear an amd shirt its just a generic red shirt

They just made fun of themselves. Not AMD. They didn't make fun of their customers at all. They're advertising at Nvidia's event and the same amount of people will go either way.

I'd like to see nvidia pull stuff like that though.

[Sintezza]

Awwh, and the Nvidia fans get Butthurt again.

[Misanthrope]

Ok AMD here is what you need to do before crashing parties

1) Fix your motherfucking naming scheme

2) Release a fucking fx chip sooner than 2016

After that maybe we can listen but for now deliver or stfu about crashing parties

[Snickerzz]

@Snickerzz Its in Indiana! There is never anything in Indiana. 

dude holy shit nothing fucking happens in indiana accept indy 500 and the colts, both of which are boring as hell

[mr.squishy]

I didn't say they made fun of AMD. And it felt like they were making fun of consumers that wanted to be the "coolest possible"

We talk about gpu´s right, so your "fucking FX cpu " statement is irrelevant

 

The naming scheme is nothing wrong with, if you dont have enough braincells to understand AMD´s naming scheme, then thats not AMDs fault isn it?

[TERAFLOP]

I think this is why AMD wants to do this:

ROFL AMD holds more market share than Nvidia.

Nvidia actually LOST market share and AMD gained.

Actually I wouldn't mind. Physx is actually really cool and more games need to use it. 

[NoctHorn]

Hey, I live in Chicago.  I should definitely crash Nvidia's party

 

TEAM RED!
