Ubisofts uDontPlay is catastrophically terrible.
I actually asked Ubisoft to close my accounts and had a heap of their games removed from my Steam account. - Why? Because it never worked.
I won't even pick up a Ubisoft game even if it was for free.

For their games never working, they sure sell a lot of them.

Sure. Just not in my household. Haha

Great that AMD bitchslapped Intel with Ryzen and EPYC, if only they could do that to nVidia as well.

Even when AMD was superior to nVidia in Price/Performance/Power Consumption, they still fell short of marketshare.
GPU designs also tend to be fairly capital intensive, something that AMD didn't really have much of an abundance of over the last few years.
Ryzen should help turn that around though.

Feels more like Intel fucked up big time somewhere in the past 5 years. For AMD to go anywhere in the GPU market Nvidia would need to do the same. Also it's help if AMD actually had GPU products.

Intel pretty much stagnated after Sandy Bridge, which Intel capitalized on in order to maximize their profits.

nVidia most certainly hasn't. - Maxwell, Pascal, Volta and Ampere are all pretty potent designs with a considerably efficiency edge over AMD's archaic GCN based architectures.

Well, it's sort of like Athlon XP situation again - that made Intel pull their head out of their own ass.

True about GPUs and AMD - maybe it's time for another player in that game.

Intel has signaled that it is entering the GPU space again due in 2020.
