The fact you're trying to use a larger vocabulary just to support your arguments shows how little you know.

Maybe you should ask for a refund for that college edumacation of yours, it's clearly not working.
According to the massive waste of oxygen that has been is your existence, yes.

Seriously, you throw a tantrum like a child.

You can't defeat my argument, because you cannot understand it. Acquire some critical thinking skills, and then we can have a discussion.

Enough dude. You're clearly posting off topic in a personal nature. Take a break.

According to you -- a pathetic human being that is incapable of understanding what messages others are trying to convey. Yes, your opinion really matters.

The point is you're terrible at conveying anything. Yes, your opinion really matters.
The thing is, I was conveying something rather simple until you decided to butt in and pretend like you had any idea of what I was talking about. It then continually bloated because I have to spoon-feed everything to you.

I find it ironic that the person who starts the personal attacks says "back off."

Just sayin...:sneaky: It's sad that you can't even convey a "simple" message/point.

It's sad that you can't comprehend simple messages/points. Like that iMac argument yesterday... hilarious that you were arguing that it was a good idea to chain yourself to a locked in hardware set and OS, when a more flexible solution is available (IPS + PC) with similar display performance.

I've got better things to be doing. Adios.

You guys are throwing personal attacks with zero content that add nothing to the anandtech forums.

Like getting an education? :D

Still butthurt over that post yesterday? Still waiting for some proof that the Dell is actually better than the iMac. Not going to hold my breath since proof is something that seems to scare you.

Then again according to you DX11.1 on a $135 card is important for future proofing.

i think we need to really look at this the other way around. Its not like Nvidia is being outdone by AMD more the obvious reverse. So the op is asking the wrong question completely. Its more correct this way:

Why does AMD have to price their cards so much lower than nvidia does?

To answer this question is to solve the entire mystery. This that boggles the mind of the one responsible for the OP.

The obvious answer:
AMD prices their GPUs in a market they are competing in. Currently even with their lower prices they are not selling as many GPUs as their competitor. In the discrete market, Nvidia out sells AMD by about 2 cards to their 1. So we now see that AMD even with lower price is being out performed by Nvidia. It is beyond debate, AMD has prices set according to what the market will pay. The lower price helps them sell cards.

Considering that nvidia holds nearly 2/3rds of the dGPU market, perhaps AMD should lower their prices even more. Dont look at this backwards like the OP has. AMD has lower prices because they want to sell cards.

This is not unusual.
