Is Nvidia just better than AMD?

[LeStringMan]

Very childish, we have a discussion on why re-branding is ok in some scenarios, and the guy comes in here explicitly mentions why nVidia is better, because GTX 970 has hdmi 2.0, and Fury X does not (of all things), then resorts to name calling. Sorry for offending you on the internet dear friend @othertomperson. I will almost certainly cry myself to sleep tonight.

If someone starts crying because I compare two generations of Netgear products, I'll probably still call them a twat tbh. Probably moreseo actually.

 

Nah you wouldn't. Just change the name of the companies in question and this'll be a stale boring conversation.

I barely mentioned Nvidia at all in my post, and that was in relation to a really old obsolete product of theirs. I actually compared two generations of AMD products. Nvidia have rebranded as well, I don't know why you keep going on about them.

 

You are trying to save face and backpedal from your offence that I didn't like the lack of HDMI support on a card. Your offence doesn't offend me, it just prevents me from taking you seriously.

Whatever you say. I'm sitting here laughing to myself for comparing featuresets of different generations of AMD products and barely even mention Nvidia at all, and yet someone takes offence at this and multiple people imply that I am an Nvidia fanboy for this. This is why people cannot have a discussion on the topic, not because I say that being offended over a sodding graphics card is twattery.

I don't know why people get upset with AMD re-branding their cards, is it really AMD's fault that the now 4 year old HD 7000 series is still capable of competing with Maxwell?

That was the sad part, lol. Although they did have to release 4 new cards.

But you did mention nVidia in that post, literally the 580,950,and 970, i don't understand what you are so upset about lol, also coming on here and attacking other member of the forum does not offend me, rather it simply prevents me from taking them seriously.

Also, to anyone who quoted me. I was listing AMD's BS. I never gave Nvidia a free pass.

I didn't mention the 970 at all. The 950 and 580 are cards I know the power requirements of so can make a generation comparison. You'll notice I compared Nvidia to Nvidia across generations, not AMD to Nvidia. If you could get around your pathetic fanboyism for a moment, you'd see that my point was how intergeneration improvements (as well as dramatically reducing costs for AMD and Nvidia due to the smaller dies) have other feature improvements.

 

Now are you just going to reword this post at me again, or are you going to come up with a thought of your own?

This is why we can't have topics like theses, even though most of it has been reasonable debate, they always just tends to just end in bickering back and forth so we're going to call it here.
