amd vs nvidia

[NicholasNicholasNicholas]

So over the years ive seen both of these companies grow, and i can conclude that amd cares much, much more about the consumer than nvidia does. Ive divided these into points
1 Amd wants to share technologies that that create, whereas nvidia patents them. a good example of this is hairworks. 
2 Nvidia always wants to make a profit. A great example of this is the 1080ti and titan x. instead of placing them fairly, they skyrocketed the prices to make as much money as possible
3 while not the top in terms of performance, they always want to have good competition and place things fairly.

I totally agree, but this post is pretty useless. There are multiple videos made about this topic.

 1. meh. sure.

2. AMD is always out to make a profit too. they're a company. if a company wants to stay in business profit is the only way to do it. they may go about it different ways, but that doesn't mean AMD cares less about making money than Nvidia does. and Nvidia SHOULD patent their hard work so they can continue to make great amounts of money with their unique designs... and thus can continue to push the limit. and yes, charging premium prices for premium goods is how free market works. if people don't like that some company should contest it. if no company can contest it then they can damn well charge whatever they want.

3. and if they DID have technology no one else could come close to beating? you're fooling yourself if you think AMD wouldn't do the exact same thing in Nvidias position. If AMD had market share AND dominating performance, there would be no reason to not charge more for their goods.

 

 

 

and why you gotta start a post like this man? all its gonna do is draw out fanboys and create uneeded drama

2 yeah, i guess

3 i know that this is off topic, but that is exactly what happened in the 2000s. amd created dual core cpus and x64 cpus. if amd had patented those technologies, intel wouldnt exist today

I do not know enough about the specifics of exactly how these things work to have a thorough conversation about it.... but there are limits to what you can patent (which I do not know if that applies here), and patents are also verryy specific. AMD could very well have patents on those things but if intel designs them in SLIGHTLY different ways, it becomes fair game. Often times companies know this and will deliberately choose NOT to patent because patenting means you have to disclose how everything works... and it may be more beneficial for them to leave the mystery up to the competition to figure out rather than giving them ammunition in the form of blueprints in order for the competition to create their own version of it.

yeah maybe, and im not sure if you could even patent the dual cores, but the x64 wouldve been hard to copy without making a x128 cpu
