I don't buy nvidia because I don't like the companies ethics or lack there of and it seems to me that a large portion of their fanbase share their deficiencies. I don't however go out of my way to trash them.
I'm really to old to watch 14yos fight their way through puberty.
But you happily buy AMD who lie to their investors, lie to their customers about pump whine not affecting retail cards, purposely withhold driver updates to 290X cards so the 390X look better on review day, lie about stock issues due to demand, lie about Nvidia sabotaging AMD performance in certain games, contradict themselves about VRAM importance in the name of marketing etc.
Both companies are the same. They try to maximize profit and say whatever they can to meet those objectives.
AMD like to play the victim and it seems some people just lap up that marketing material and go on a Nvidia hate crusade.
If someone doesn't buy Nvidia because of ethical issues that is fine, but they also shouldn't buy AMD cards, Intel CPUs, use MS windows, eat nestle products, nike shoes,apple or Samsung phones, Volks Wagon or Ford cars, or pretty much anything really.
My wife is a prof of business Ethics, I know a pretty comprehensive list of ethically dubious companies. nvidia is a complete angel sent down form heaven compared to many major companies you are used to.
Does you ethical choices only surrounding ignoring Nvidia, or do you take a more holistic approach? Ever drank at Star Bucks, ate a Big mac, use a bank account, flown with Ryan air, etc, etc.
