It is certainly correct that handing over money to AMD for terrible Radeon products is not a good idea either. The money needs to be earned. The question is how good is good enough, and are people willing to settle for reasonably less cost, while receiving equivalently less performance/advancement? With enough people on board with that, it's much more likely the underdog can at least get much closer to the leader or surpass them, though not guaranteed.

A pure capitalist mindset is a recipe for disaster. Pure Socialist is no different. Somewhere in between is where the balance needs to be maintained. Right now it seems the capitalist mindset is winning out which just may allow Nvidia to end up dictator of consumer GPU's. Though maybe King Intel, Lord of the CPU lands, will have something to say about it in due time.

The problem  there, lies within the fact that Nvidia have pulled ahead with their offerings, like GFE, GFN and DLSS, so atm, we're already expecting less from AMD, but the asking prices will be high, so not only are expectations not even being met here, but the fact that their asking  prices will be out of touch from their end. 

Again, firmly where I stand, they need to work to earn it, which means bringing what Nvidia has to the table. accepting less and paying more still buys into the charity ideal, which isn't something I would vouch for.

So far, all other spectrums have proven that going all in for each can be equally as bad, but as it stands, Capitalism is what the current market operates on, and socialism with the GPU market wouldn't even begin to work out well.

AMD so far are creaming Intel's CPU div, as well as the glaring and disgusting fact that Intel still refuse to fully and abruptly address their CPU vulnerabilities, while AMD has been working on theirs. Sure, Intel still has some of that mind-share, but that is now starting to fade, while Nvidia's is not, because AMD isn't trying as much as they are in the CPU dept, but then again, Lisa and co seem to just care more about a fight they know they could win over the long term, and just wait till Nvidia gets bored with the GPU market in the future (which they likely will, going by their ventures into other tech markets)
