Can anybody explain why a 390x with half the TDP and half the price for a mid range card is considered a failure?
Polaris wasn't even expected to be that powerful.
If Nvidia released a 960 with the power of a 980 people would be losing their minds.
Because unpaid shills gonna shill
There's caring about videocards and then there's outright advertisements posted here

It's not just the price but also weeks of waiting
Because butthurt children/fanboys and shills.
afaiu, AMD cards have always been much more powerful than nvidia cards (for example, AMD cards were being used to mine bitcoins. no one would ever think about doing that with nvidia cards), but their drivers usually suck, and they aren't better for games, which annoys manchildren
the sad thing is that both intel and nvidia cheat against AMD (compilers, "performance hacks" and so on), which is why their products are "better" (and much more expensive), but not really that much.
