Man vs machine. This world has enough markets with a company going against one another. At least in the GPU market we don't have Nvidia buying off games and tying them to a select few GPU's entirely. |
TBH, we have Nvidia using their cash to put Gameworks on games an try to make them run like crap on AMD GPUs. Actually, this is even worse than buying exclusivity, because intead of having consumers pissed at Nvidia for moneygrabbing games, you are indeed tricking them into thinking that their AMD GPU is garbage because it won't run the game as well as the Nvidia ones.
We also have Nvidia refusing to use a open tearing-free monitor standard like Free-sync and we end up with monitors with either G-sync of Free-sync so nobody buys them because people don't want to be tied to a GPU manufacturer, which is basically making this monitor useless and killing the dream of having a tearing-free gaming experience.
Nvidia also did not wanted to jump in the Mantle bandwagon because AMD would have more to gain from it, even if all games would run better. Wait until they start to try killing off Vulkan for games.
There is als things like CUDA, that only run on Nvidia GPUs, that also usually give crappy support to OpenCL so they can keep the market of GPU computing for them, even if it means that CUDA will always be sub-utilized for regular consumers since not everyone has a Nvidia GPU.
I could go on and on with their anti-consumer practices, so it's not like it's fair play there. They also will screw consumers to screw their competitor.
