I'm gonna get a GTX760 in a month, finally ditching AMD.

Good to hear nVidia is launching the 750 for the mainstream market : D

As a huge nVIDIA fan, even I ask, why the ditch?

I'm kinda tired of AMD's bad drivers, not that I expected anything today from my old Radeon 4850, but it happened since I got it back in 2008. The hardware was (and still is) awesome, but the drivers are bad.

Also, CUDA, for VRay RT and what not.

It probably doesn't help that the Radeon 4850 is on life-support now like with all it's older cards, so support is going to be minimal.

Tell you what though, I'm loving the 13.8 drivers, they pretty much fixed allot of the main issues, I'm justing waiting for them to fix the Eyefinity and Tri-fire frame latency in the next driver release and everything will be perfect.

But boy, 2 years having to put up with my 7970's, I need new cards. Faster cards. I haven't gone without upgrading this long in years!
