You have to ask why they were swapping out 970s for 980s really and why not jump on the 390 etc? Did they see the AMD card as a really poor alternative? Did they see the jump to a 980 as a cheap upgrade?
I see a few jumping to a 980, I see a few sticking with the 970 and I did see the occasional jump to AMD but it was a mountain out of a molehill scenario that Nvidia did **** up on and should have been more honest about. It isn't like AMD ever sell you an 8 core processor that can't actually use all 8 cores at once now is it?![]()
I do believe at the time 390 wasn't released yet. It was 290 or 290x.
