Nvidia butthurt gets stronger as AMD's market share and revenue stream gets smaller and smaller, makes perfect sense.

While we're in a state of delusion at Anand...

But... but... It's all that matters when comparing companies, best friends aren't called McDonald's.

It matters in this thread chimaxi, per the discussion context. I know it hurts, but calling names and bandwagoning won't change anything.

Speak for yourself.If AMD dies the show will go on.People will still play games.Life will continue and Green fanboys will gloat....

We live in a world where Bieber's music sells a lot....doesn't mean it's good music.Crap prevails and good stuff is sometimes buried.It happens........

Who else am I going to speak for?

And what does anything you said after that have anything to do with what was said?



What's the difference between stating market facts, and green fanboys gloating, in your opinion?

You cannot speak for me.

Financials and who survives doesn't always mean we get the best stuff in the end....

Sometimes crap wins out and crap sells.It's a fact....

I don't understand, you have the choices to decide what best fits your subjective tastes, tolerances, thresholds and wallets.

The best stuff are choices to consider to me.

During a period when AMD had the highest performance gpu on the market January 2012, til now, during which time they've had better perf/$ as well as more games per bundle, who has sold the most products, and who has made the most money?

Is it AMD or is it Nvidia?

Don't try to derail the discussion into subjective tastes, stick to the facts.

I'm sorry, but why do I as a consumer give a shit who sold more cards or who has the highest profit margin? I don't care if Nvidia is the most profitable company in the world or on the verge of bankruptcy, I just want a better deal. You are the only one derailing the discussion. This thread is about a game that Nvidia is including with its GPU's, and you are bringing up marketshare and profit margin. Who cares? I just want more value for my dollar. AMD has been KILLING it with regards to value for the dollar, but sadly they stink at Crossfire so I had to go Nvidia on this build. Waiting to pick up a second card until Nvidia either lowers prices or incentivises me with a good game bundle. I couldn't care less about Nvidia or AMD as a business.

If AMD dies there mightn't be too much choice.

Anyway the game bundle from Nvidia is a good idea.I still have an unopened Metro DVD on my shelf so I don't know how these Metro games play....

All the Nvidia boys toss around financial bs because it apparently strengthens their arguments. I guess we, as gamers, are supposed to give a rats ass about financial analysis.

While all the AMD boys ignore reality in favor of walling off the world.

Apparently in this state of delusion who sells more cards when both are running bundles is not relevant.

Who knew actual information was "fanboyism and trolling" while "feelings and emotions" where the mark of those free from all prejudice and favoritism.


It would be a welcomed change of pace if at some point in the future we could have an actual discussion on this forum that revolved around facts instead of whatever you call this.

Well, since some of these folks aren't gainfully employed and have plenty of time to scour the internet for financials.

Those people probably have time to educate themselves, yeah that does make sense.

I wonder why others who report being in school can't seem to grasp simple concepts like frame times and rage on the forums due to their ignorance?


I heard the education system was going downhill, but who knew it could get this bad?

So I got a 680 3 weeks ago, it didn't have the F2P bundle. Any chance I can get some retro credit and get this bundle?

F2P has been discontinued so chances are no.

Bah, I was || close to going AMD this time because their bundled games were great, and they added Farcry Blood Dragon. That's a very tangible saving in games, cause I would have played them all! Oh well :p

Yea, its kinda killing me see AMD get all of these great bundle deals as I sit here waiting for any excuse to pick up a second GTX 670.

You should be able to find it cheaper than what you can find on cdkey websites once it comes out.

I actually picked up FC3 today for really cheap, I heard it was really good so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Probably get it for $5 or less pretty easily.

No doubt. Plenty of sit at computer practicing google-fu Gordon Gekkos pollute every thread with nonsense. Should use some of that 'skill' to go make some money with the endless fount of 'knowledge' they are tapped into via google and nvidia PR releases.
