I get the people who buy Nvidia because of the niche use case of AI or they have to use specific software for their work. I also get the people who are unable or unwilling to learn enough about computers to give a shit who makes their GPU. Those people get a pass. For now.
However anyone who willingly chooses to support the PhysX Gsync Hairworks Teraflop proprietary cluster fuck palooza do not. It makes me physically ill any time I see them flop their limp dick on the table and exclaim they paid for their dogshit tools to be in yet another game so they can make the claim their overpriced bullshit is worth it because it technically works 6% better on that game you want. You don’t give a shit why it does but it does. The walled garden quickly becomes a prison.
So yeah I buy AMD, viva la revolution, fuck anticonsumer bullshit.
I want the best bang for my buck. I don’t want old ass shitty FSR or AMDs falling behind Ray Tracing. Also RTX Audio is crazy. Also Nvidia shadowplay, which has been around forever, is so handy.
When AMD catches up, I’ll switch. I’m not brand loyal. I just want to play games and use the latest technology.
Best bang for buck and caring about exclusive features are counter intuative. The brand with more features always cost more, and always try to set the market in their favor to prevent competitors from gaining ground, even of they have or do not have a better product at a given price segment.
E.g anyone who bought a 3050 for 30% more than a 6600 when the latter was by default, 15%+ faster on average in a performance tier that raytracing is usually not viable.
Why care about Ray tracing? I get that it looks pretty for cinematic shots but for actual games it tanks performance so hard I’d literally never turn it on. Plus with UE5 coming with Lumen it doesn’t even seem like it can compare but I digress.
I’m not brand loyal either, just hate anti consumer shit. Apple does it too. But suggesting Nvidia is giving you more bang for your buck… No sir or madam, that’s absolutely not the case. AMD is and has always been the price to performance solution.
Nvidia will edge out top top performance, sure, but you’re overpaying by a lot. Some people have that kind of money but I sure as shit don’t. AMD have caught up, have made solid competitors to proprietary technologies, and you can even use them without an AMD card.
AMD has in-house ‘moment capture’ like shadowplay but I’m unfamiliar with RTX audio. It won’t be a perfect switch obviously but if you do any poking around on value metrics for cards, you’ll see I’m not bullshitting you.
Why care about Ray tracing? I get that it looks pretty for cinematic shots but for actual games it tanks performance so hard I’d literally never turn it on.
I don’t know what games you’re playing, but when I turn ray tracing on, I go from 400fps to 120fps. Not sure why I’d ever want to disable ray tracing to get 400fps, when 120fps is plenty?
But suggesting Nvidia is giving you more bang for your buck… No sir or madam, that’s absolutely not the case.
AMD may be slightly cheaper, but you get worse ray tracing, FSR, no RTX audio, no good software like Shadowplay…
All of those features are worth a bit more money. So yes, you get the best bang for your buck. Not sure why I’d want to “save” a bit of money if I am going to lose out on a ton of software features and a generational leap in ray tracing.
So you don’t realize how going from 400 to 120 might impact you if you start at say 150 instead? It’s still a massive performance hit. If Ray tracing is an essential feature to you, have at it, I just personally never cared so much about lighting that it was the sole or even main reason for getting a card.
My brother you’re paying for features, yes, including ones you may not want or use. Nvidia is charging you for shadowplay in the cost of the card, AMD just includes a nameless feature to do the exact same thing in the settings. Everything you’re using has an AMD comparison or a FOSS alternative. You are not limited by the hardware, you just like the convience of Nvidia streamlining it but you should at least be aware and honest about that.
You’re willing to pay extra for them to make you a nice dinner but most people cook their own food because they can’t afford to eat out every night. Yeah your burger isn’t going to be as good as they can make it but you’re getting a solid alternative for less. AMD gives you the best value, Nvidia gives you cutting edge, and if AMD keep making power moves like threadripper that might not always be the case.
Shut the fuck up about FOSS. Lemmy users are insufferable.
Enjoy your generation behind AMD card with less features for a few bucks less. I’ll keep my Nvidia card that’s generations ahead for a bit more money. Thanks.
Lmao keep being a slave to proprietary dogshit, its not generations ahead, and enjoy overpaying for less. I can only try to help with advice, can’t teach fools.
I don’t understand what you mean overpaying for less? I literally listed the stuff Nvidia has that AMD doesn’t. Sorry you can’t read. Can’t teach the illiterate.
It’s current gen, the only thing comparable to Ray Tracing and FSR is Lumen which is an in-engine technology in Unreal Engine 5 which has yet to be widely adopted.
You are the perfect customer for Nvidia. An absolute moron with too much money on their hands. I literally just explained AMD has in-house alternatives, but who among us can’t read? I also said FOSS and you had a level 10 rage aneurism because the idea you can find software that isn’t made to throat fuck you by the brand you bought it from is an alien concept for you. I thought you weren’t an Nvidia loyalist but no, you were merely lying. A shame.

AMD ray tracing and FSR are literally last gen…
Enjoy lying to yourself to feel better.
