AMD vs NVIDIA - The Ultimate Question and Final Answer NCIX Tech Tips

that would be a new development, last time i checked nvidia cards consumed electricity like anime consumes souls.

i also only now realized that waxman confused Ati and AMD. well, replace AMD with Ati in my statement and it should work out still.

in case of processors, again, if nothing changed, intel is far superior and most intel processors beat AMD ones easily when in the same price range.

then again i am no computerexpert and there is more that goes into performance than raw power, synergy is important too.
So basically last you checked was over 2 years ago when people were cooking eggs and bacon on the GTX 400 series ?
Better power efficiency isn't a new development at all, both AMD and Nvidia have been at it for years, though with their more recent cards (600 and 700 series), Nvidia has gotten really good at it.

That said though, I would never pay for anything even remotely related to AMD, and I feel sorry for anyone who do.

The brand that you like is your best brand.


In my opinion, AMD's GPUs have good colors ( Black, White ). Black is really black. White is really white. I want to call it Mr color. XD

So I took AMD products ( XXXXX=R9 290 ). I don't hate NVIDIA tho. GTX760 was good cost-performance. To play osu! is great enough...

Sure looks like quality conversations to me :^)

Either that or your "standards" suddenly took a heavy dip.

Wow that TDP on the 295x2 is insane. No wonder it needs a liquid cooler, holy shit.

I kept up to date with GPUs when I built my PC a while ago, I think my observation was that AMD card were much better for their price than Nvidia, although Nvidia was the leader when it came to top end cards. I think that's still true.

this is relevant for the reference 290s now. Nvidia is nice and cool.

It goes by UID you bellend.
The footer of the osu! website says otherwise about pebbles and webdesign

NVIDIA has more utilities, shadowplay might be a gamebreaker, but MSI afterburner works fine too.
then again optimus screws up on linux, so its really hard to choose.

Nvidia's definitely better at the higher ranges.

The Conclusion is ; Both brands have it's pros and cons. Which brand you choose depends on what you use. Shopping for graphics card can be difficult due to ammount of "FEATURES" there is for each brand...

CUDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA


According to my study about CUDA.


Calculation Speed ( calculation 10^8 times )

CPU i7 -2700K  :arrow: 97.507 s
GTX 560      :arrow: 39.486 s



Im so noob as this study. peppy is much better ;w;

CUDA OP.
IppE
Cuda (and OpenCL) is only good for stuff thats easily parallelizable, since GPUs are all about tons of weak cores.

Plus I wouldn't really called a closed API a selling point when you could just be using OpenCL which works on both brands.
Lewder
waxman you seem oddly invested in trying to justify your purchase, you really don't need to justify it but you don't need to call the other brand shit either just enjoy the video games your GPU can run holy shti
