More like the other way around. AMD currently beats Nvidia at price/performance, power efficiency(though the new 7xxx series made this kind of even) and compute performance. |
Bolded is just plain wrong. Power consumption really isn't even close with the 680 vs HD7000 series...
And in terms of price to performance, yeah thats all they have going for them. Being cheaper and bundling games.

Sorry to say but isn't that the only thing that matters to most people? Being cheaper at the same performance level? A Titan is fast but at $800-$1000 it's not exactly affordable for the general public. And it's only the GTX 680 that's more power efficient when compared to the high clocked HD7970. Lower down the line it's even or a slight advantage to AMD.

They aren't at the same performance level, though. Why buy an nVIDIA card at all if that is the case?

What do you mean with performance levels? Anything up to $400- bucks AMD can match any Nvidia card in performance. Sure the absolute performance crown goes to Nvidia when you look at a very expensive titan, though AMD could probably make a chip to even compete with that if they really wanted to. There is just no point in it though.
And with all next gen consoles using AMD gpu's, yes why would anyone buy an Nvidia card for gaming?
