Thank you guys, keep the good work

You can tell this image is AI because the guy has three arms but real people only have two
My 2025 pc (before the ram price jumps) is all amd!
And its honestly pretty awesome
And 20gb vram is nice
Not that i think amd is a saint among these types of companies
But compared to Nvidia..?
AMD does the exact same as Nvidia. They're just less successful with it. It doesn't really matter who you buy from in that regard, I think.
yeah the main reason AMD isn't quite as price-gouged is that ROCm isn't quite as in demand as CUDA for non-gaming uses for GPUs.
The history of consumer computing is just looking at all the different ways Nvidia has figured out how to fuck said consumers over
Yet people keeps buying their product. It's almost as if voting with your wallet is all that'll ever work.
voting with your wallet
I'm terrified how many people think buying and selling stuff is moral, civic, and democratic duty. Econ 101 doesn't even work in economics, why are we applying it to everything?
Nvidia doesn’t care about consumer votes. They have plenty of AI dollars.
Yet all people I hear have bought new computers in the last 15 years (very few exceptions) somehow has Nvidia cards.
I went AMD when I bought my new computer 3 years ago! (Not that they're much better at all!)
Hoping cheap Chinese GPUs and RAM catch up soon!
We don't have the money to back up our vote in this 'election'. If you could even call it that. Capitalism isn't a democratic process.
