Is the thing about the new nvidia drivers causing severe problems/crashes a real thing or is it just propaganda from A.M.D. Shills?
Nope, nvidia drivers kill your gpu and brick your screen. Also they provide "stability updates" that disable overclocking.

Anecdotal evidence.

>Fall for the 970 meme

Nobody said Nvidia has perfect drivers, it's just above and beyond the shit amd releases. Nvidia releases drivers that allows you to use the product the reason you bought it for, while amd releases broken shit that only works a quarter of the time.
Imagine buying a printer/camera/router/fan/any product that only works 25% of the time, that's what AMD products are like.

Meanwhile, 25% of the time the camera you bought from Nvidia bursts into flames because of an update, 25% of the time it kills itself because of an update, 25% of the time the update actually reduces performance, and the other 25% of the time it actually works as intended with the performance advertised.

*for one year until the new lineup arrives and they gimp it via software
Pay up, stupid goy!
>8800 gtwhatever, worked well with no issues

>290 Radeon, works well with no issues, still maxing new games
I haven't even installed windows fresh since before the 4870 xfire debacle. How are people having issues?

Literally 90% of the people with issues on AMD cards (on Windows, at least.)
the only reason you rarely hear of AMD drivers breaking shit is because AMD never releases driver updates.
