NVidia flops>AMD flops

In addition to improvements over the architecture itself. It's useless looking at TFlops between the two and making assumptions

 

Wrong.

It depends on the GPU architecture in question. If AMD has the more efficient architecture, then it will have an advantage.

Vega should beat Fermi for example.
Regardless, the flops are irrelevant, it's a theoretical number, the other parts of the chip are arguably just as much, if not more important and have an influence in total performance as well

 

It's rather disingenuous of you to only partially quote someone telling them they're wrong and then turning around and agreeing with the part of the statement that you cut off.

 

I did do a little reading though and from what I understand, NVidia scales other parts of their gpu together while AMD does not which generally means that NVidia cards are more thoroughly able to max out from what I understand. And this isn't about fermi vs vega either. This is about maxwell vs GCN2.0.
