Wow, nvidia is really obsessed with the PS4, aren't they?
|
mmh, doubtful. they deliver a lot of chips to smartphones and they are trying to expand this business. i think there is a lot more money to make with tegra than amd does with ps4 (and nextbox, of course).
|
What is there to be doubtful about? Nvidia has been dissing the next generation of consoles for months now. It's clear that they're very salty.
|
I remember they said that nextgen is already outdated - there is more powerful hardware already available. As a company this is just usual business, that's all. They want PC-guys to pay for "the way it's meant to be played". Nothing more, nothing less.
|
Oh, not just that. Nvidia has been bitter about consoles for a long time now. Like when they said that the next gen of consoles will be the last. Or when they said that they let AMD have the next generation of consoles. Or when they said that the PS4 GPU equals a low-end nvidia one. And one this. All in the space of a few months? Is it usual business to make so many statements about a competitor in such a short span of time?
|
1. Yes, it is.
2. What statement isn't true? There are some which can be argued but these statements are not way off!
|
1. No, it isn't.
2. No one said it's not true. Of course, a $400-$1000 GPU is going to be more powerful than a $150 one. My point, which still stands, is about how nvidia is butthurt about being the least relevant graphics card manufacturer in gaming.
|
1. Agree to disagree, this leads to nothing.
2. Can you backup your statement that nvidia is the least relevant graphics card manufacturer in gaming? Keep in mind, they are also powering a lot of Android-devices, the PS3 *and* sell graphic-solutions for pc (and notebooks).
|
2. Well, AMD GPUs are in every next gen system (and the 360). How many pc gamers that have nvidia cards are there out here compared to consoles?
|
It is your turn to prove your statement that nvidia is the least relevant gpu manufacturer. Looks as if you don't have any *data* that supports your point. It's ok to argue this way (read: with no data) if someone has a strong belief in his own opinion but it doesn't help discussing.
To show you what I mean, look over here: http://www.nasdaq.com/article/nvidias-dominance-in-gpus-and-higher-tegra-sales-lift-outlook-cm218257
If you can find anything to prove your point, feel free to provide a link, too.

As I said gaming GPUs, not just any GPU. PC gaming is still relatively niche compared to console gaming (when it comes to everywhere but China).
|
Ok, we can quit this here, as the subject slightly turns in a selective way and the discussion will end in no good as it is not objectively measurable what is a gaming gpu, even if you would give a (biased) definition.
