But can AMD wait another 4 years for him? Will there be an AMD to come back in four years?

The World May Never Know :O

I'm jumping to Nvidia and Intel for my next rig but I hope AMD still exists in four years lol  - for the sake of competition.

Don't take it wrong, I've never understood the "I'll jump to XX in my next PC" comments. No one knows how the nexts cards will be nor its price or the performance of any of those cards, so saying now that you'll get a specific brand is, at best, pure speculation.

All I can say is that my next rig is still a few years away (I hope!), but my next graphics card will be the one with the best performance/price ratio that fills my conditions (min. performance, certain price range, etc.). No matter the brand. And if I needed a CPU it would be the same.

For example, if I had to buy a gfx card back in January, I would have gone with Nvidia and the 970, but now (after the 3.5+0.5GB reveal and the driver problems with Kepler cards) it would be AMD and the 390.

And yes, it's for our best interest to keep AMD around and competitive.
