It's a mixture of bias against AMD and Nvidia brand loyalty. My bf recently got a proper PC for the first time and I helped him pick out parts which included a 6700 XT but his roommate suggested he go with a 2060 or a 2070 Super instead since he thought the 6700 XT would be worse despite the better performance cause of stuff like drivers. He listened to me over him of course but there will be many other people going with a worse Nvidia GPU instead of a better AMD one due to bad advice like that. Nvidia's current lineup should change public perception on this at least somewhat but probably not enough. 

No wonder when you get recommendations like these when you want to compare GPUs:

To be fair, you can also click on the RX 6700XT in the top bar to se it's advantages... but unless you know that, you'll think the 2070 is superior to the 6700XT, which absolutely isn't the case.

What is that site? It's perplexing the 2070 has more points when based on the criteria it's rated worse in 3, even in 1 and better in only one.
