If you buy intel or Nvidia products you are literally supporting companies worse than Hitler and Apple.

I buy products because of quality, not ideology, go with that shit to /g/, come back when drivers.

Internet caps don't really matter, lots of places are offering unlimited I think.
My friend gets 120gb a month which is plenty for him. I just don't see the need to pay for a land-line and mobile connection.

I use naked browser, chrome kept reloading tabs when I switched them, which ends up using more data and battery.
It was also pretty annoying.
>>
>>51394745
This. Every company is and acts unethical, being consistent would kill almost all options to use a computer. So the best choice is to go by quality.

Till AMD gets their power usage under control, they aren't an option.
>>
>>51395205
They're working on that.
>>
>>51394709
yeah because nvidia murders several million people of a certain ethnic group

Get fucked aspie. At least I choose a product with good drivers and reduced risks of house fires

>At least I choose a product with good drivers and reduced risks of house fires

So, pretty much AMD then?
>>
>>51395353
you must be from bizarro world. When has amd ever had working drivers on time with anything?
>>
>>51395371
Well, fallout drivers are out, it's been one week since the game was released? Idk, I don't follow fallout.

Also about the housefires, people buy shitty power supplies because everyone shills maxwell efficiency, most people that buy AMD have a 650w+, 80+ bronze psu.
So in that regard the AMD system will cause less housefires.
I'd also mention fermi since I'm sure some fuckwad is going pop up shouting thermi, but that happened a few years ago so meh.

I try to stay neutral, but I tend to favour amd a bit more. And now that AMD releases monthly drivers I'm glad that meme has ended.
>>
>>51395602
You realize that efficiency got nothing to do with the PSU strength?

It's silly to buy an AMD card if a Maxwell one can have same performance at 70% power usage.
>>
>buy nvidia
>supporting price gouging, anti competition, etc.

>buy AMD

>>
>>51395689
I never said that. I just said people buy better PSUs for AMD systems.

Also amd currently has frtc for gcn cards, and are promising double the performance per watt for the next gen.

Considering how much smaller their r&d budget is compared to nvidia, I'd say what they're accomplishing is simply amazing.

>I just said people buy better PSUs for AMD systems.
aka. spend more money initially and have higher running costs.

>and are promising double the performance per watt for the next gen.
That's given with die shrink. If they get similar or better numbers than NV, they would become viable for me. Though given NV marketing, even with better product it doesn't look too well for AMD sadly.

>I'd say what they're accomplishing is simply amazing
I agree and it's obvious that they are the more likeable company but it's irrelevant for most customers. What counts is how their product performs compared to the competition and since Maxwell … they aren't doing a very good job.

The CPUs ... well, no need to say anymore. I only got one because I am a dirty poorfag.
>>
>>51395869
A higher wattage psu is always a good investment, so I don't consider that a waste.

Other than that I agree with most of what you said. Although since the only game I play is battlefield 4 and planetary annihilation, i feel like I would have been better off getting an fx6300 instead of the i5 2500 i got.
>>
>>51395965
I wish I'd go for a non overclockable i5. Bought a FX6300 and spend more time on optimising overclocking than gaming even though stock is perfectly fine.
>>
no op, amd is pretty shit actually

>buy a fx6300 thinking that mantle and better core management in games will improve my performance
>zero games with mantle and/or vulkan

>buy a amd video card
>lol no VSR for you!!!
>drivers come out 1 month after the game releases

seriously everything is fucking half-assed, I reported at least 3 bugs to them, none of them were fixed and I didn't even get a reply
>>
>>51395697
>anti-progressiveness
I sincerely hope that you do not mean forward thinking and innovation because you would look like an absolute idiot who's been hiding under a rock for a few years.
>>
>>51394709
I don't even care about ethics but AMD better than nvidia for graphic cards. Not only do they have better value for the same performance, but they don't fuck us by slowing down our cards to buy their new ones because AMD aren't a bunch of cheating shits.
>>
>>51394709
>implying hitler was bad
>>
I wouldn't buy intel or nvidia products if AMD wasn't so shit. Face it, they are GARBAGE and that's why they have no money. In a capitalist world, the people who make the best products make the money and they people that don't get NOTHING.
>>
>>51396225
>they are GARBAGE and that's why they have no money
they are garbage because they have no money, intel fucked them over and they've been struggling to recover ever since.
