NVIDIA Releases the GeForce 382.19 Hotfix Driver - Absent from GFE

*shrugs*

Guess I just don't see what you see.

I also kind of agree with him though.

A late product should be something special. I mean, commercially speaking it has to be. Is this really even up for debate?

I haven't purchased an AMD product since Hawaii. They've just been too late to the punch for me, frankly, and I know I'm not the only one feeling this.

Well yeah, I guess it might be a devolution of the meaning/impact of words.
Louis CK made a joke about it once how we call everything "awesome" and "best in the world".
"So we got a burger from MCdonalds and describe it with those words and then what do you say when your baby is born?"

Im not saying AMD does not have to perform here, but "better than" is "better than".
If a Vega card has the same performance as an Nvidia card but at 90% of the price, then its better, but do we go as far as to describe 10% off as "stellar" and/or "awesome" and/or "wiping the floor with the competition" ?

Because personally I wouldn't, but OP seems to require nothing less than anything fitting those descriptions to make it worth a purchase, just better is not enough, it has to smash the competition otherwise again, go green.

But maybe theirs and my definition of "awesome/stellar/wiping the floor with" is different.
