I made an account to say this: Good video card reviews, I always check them but why do you keep writing as a negative point for the AMD cards the "No support for CUDA" stuff?

Never heard of APP?

The huge majority of us use CUDA/APP for transcoding and CUDA is by far the worse solution.
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews...d-app-nvidia-cuda-intel-quicksync,2839-9.html

Also Anandetch has an article with the same conclusions.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4083/...e-i5-2600k-i5-2500k-and-core-i3-2100-tested/9

Now, a small minority of people and some applications use CUDA for rendering but there are other applications that use APP, do I need to list them?

So, why not say in the Nvidia reviews as a negative point "No support for APP", it would be much more appropriate since most of us are transcoding? And the few who are in professional video editing definitely don't use...CUDA.

Or better ditch the "no support for"...altogether? That thing looks like a page from an Nvidia ad.

Could you try to write a cohesive paragraph of multiple sentences instead of one impossible to understand run-on sentence? Come on, man! I don't even know what you're trying to say!
