Its your opinion that most games bundled runs better on the competition.

so again you have no clue what opinion actually means. results in reviews show that competing cards from Nvidia are faster in many of the bundled games. to claim your cards run the the bundled games faster is deceiving.

I know what opinion mean but i have seen many times people saying that reviews show this is faster but when you look at them over all they are not as people just cherry pick or as long as you don't use this resolution or setting..
So don't give a hoot 🙂
 
AMD's driver team must have wrote that ad. 😛

If there is any doubt at all, AMD shouldn't state it as fact. Neither should nVidia. Everyone should stick to the things that are undeniable and not subjective when they're advertising something in an ad.

That said, ads rarely follow such rules and usually just spew whatever nonsense suits their needs.

That's why i don't take them seriously because NV, AMD, Apple and Microsoft all do it, it's just amusing.

Eh?, how do these games play faster on AMD, when NV have the fastest cards period? It has nothing to do with opinion period.

well to be fair I was talking about their competing cards. so yeah no matter how you look at it, its lying to say what they are saying.
 
When I started watching "The Fixer" I was like "boooooo what a load of bs" but it got hilarious towards the second half, and it became clear they were just trolling

Same with The Collector, and I thought their sense of humor is pretty good actually

The thing is RussianSensation come out with huge list of where AMD had the lead over all between the 7xxx and 6xx, now that was some time ago and things can change over time but the thing is there is so much crying wolf that NV had the lead even when they clearly did not it gets to the point some people just don't care any more because the same BS will be said no matter the situation.
" yeah i know i know but really it is this time" 🙄

these were made cheesy on purpose i guess, it's also a cheaper way to get to a certain audience. Somewhat like Apple adverts that make fun of MS. Move on people

wat

EDIT: At least they have a palpable marketing department, so good work I guess
 
The ads work and I can imagine them being well received by the target demographic which I suspect isn't the cynical grumpy old enthusiasts that populate these forums (myself included😉).
The collector one was especially funny and as for misrepresentation that is open to debate which this forum excels at!

If you look at price competitive cards, the statement AMD made is actually pretty true. Look at 7970GE vs. 770/680 or 7950 boost vs. 760 in AMD's titles:

Either way, it's marketing. One reviews can show an AMD card winning, the other NV, depending on the section of the game/drivers used.

For some, price is never an issue, they are green all the way.

It's a sad indictment of the general fanboy when some here thinks the 780 is a good deal.

Lets hope 20nm wont debut with $1,000 single GPUs..
 
Are people really taking these seriously and getting angry? Lol. Do you really think the average person will be swayed by these, let alone see them? Don't worry your precious [insert your preferred company here] will not gain or lose sales because of these.
 
Haven't seen the misunderstanding video before. Pretty funny. The new adverts, its just marketing. Very much akin to the beer commercials. Of course it's all true. Every time I drink beer beautiful women flock to me in droves because of my overwhelming sense of coolness. I just drip with awesome.

I'm just glad there is marketing for this stuff. There's always the hope that AMD picks up market share with this and forces nVidia to lower prices. You know, by about 5 cents.
 
Personally enjoy the banter and antics between the companies -- don't take this seriously but more-so over-the-top for awareness and attention! No biggie and just 🙂!
