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

[ManWithBeard1990]

I had thought AMD above this at some point. Then I remembered them handing out potato chips at the exit of an Intel event.

Some of you really need to calm down. It's a little friendly competition. We're talking about some people wearing AMD colours and clothing at an Nvidia event. That's it. People have the right to choose what they want to wear. lol. If I was at an AMD event and saw some people with Nvidia shirts, I'd laugh. 

 

This is healthy for the GPU race and things are getting really interesting. So stop being up-tight brand-bias, just sit back and enjoy the show.

 

Yeah, the amount of butthurt in this thread over a silly little marketing thing is pretty sad to say the least lol.

How are people calling this rivalry?

You know what i call rivalry? Creating better products than the opponent, with lower power consumption, higher performance and justified price.

 

I like when companies take jabs at each other, but attempting to sabotage the opponent's event with your shitty fanboy marketing? I don't think so.

 

Like others have said, if they focused more on improving their products they wouldn't be going down to this level today.

[kuddlesworth9419]

Yeah, you are not alone. Doesn't AMD have anything better to do? 

I don't think AMD understands the consequences of this. What if a bunch of people came in and started actually wrecking the place and blamed it on AMD. Liabel is what would happen. 

[kuddlesworth9419]

Why should it be ruined?

Just because I would wear AMD shirt on NVIDIA event doesent mean that I am not interrested in what are they showcasting and therefore I am trying to ruin it for them...

 

Assuming that immature individuals will stay at home.

Immature people never stay at home when a company says to all of it's customers to go to it's rival companies event and "crash" the place. It just sounds like a terrible idea.

[Wopschi]

what if someone takes it too far and smuggles a gun through security? I hope there will be one day when the only difference between amd and nvidia are their colours...

AAAAAWWW YEEEAAAAAAAH

 

THATS THE ATI SPIRIT I WAITED FOR SO LONG

Childish. Simply childish.

 

wouldn't it be ironic if something bad happens and Nvidia sues the pants off of AMD.

all the way.

[themaniac]

one thing that might happen if amd succeeds is that NVidia might sue amd

I already said that but I said it a bit different

Childish. Simply childish.

[Brainless906]

You know your wireless routers? Qualcomm CPUs in 90% of them.

yeah team green and blue for me

[Guest]

What's team blue? Intel?

[themaniac]

oh I did not now that but still I wouldn't think that would make them worth so much

[themaniac]

What's team blue? Intel?

yeah team blue is intel

[patrickjp93]

oh I did not now that but still I wouldn't think that would make them worth so much

I'll put it this way, more wireless routers have been sold in the last decade than exist people in the North American continent.

Then there's Qualcomm cellphones, Ethernet NICs both in consumer and server ecosystems. Qualcomm is all over the place.

This is only slightly amusing from AMD, but that's about it. They're trying to hide from the fact they just can't match Nvidia in terms of performance. If AMD could have come up better cards when 600 released then we'd already have the Titan level cards back then.

 

The rage in this thread is fucking hilarious though. My god some of you do need to calm dow.

Ahh.

[themaniac]

Ahh.

yep are you also on team blue or you team green and red

Unlike Nvidia and AMD, Intel doesn't play around with petty company "fights" like this.

Even if I'm currently prefer Intel/Nvidia over AMD, I really hope it doesn't go that far.
