    AMD’s your friend now, but they’re only undercutting NVIDIA like this to get on top of the market. Once they’ve done that, it will be NVIDIA doing the undercutting, and AMD will be the one clamping down and exploiting their position.

    It has happened time and time again.

    Don’t simp for corporations. They’ll never return the favour.

      Generally agree, but when one of the two participants in a market is actively hostile to users and the other is actually competing for market share, seems like that’s worth acknowledging. Especially when we so many examples of either outright collusion or as soon as one corporation introduces a new hostile feature all the others in the market follow.

      On that note, I’m waiting for the day Nvidia announces a subscription service for unlocking cores or clock speeds.
