As stated in my sig, I have an EVGA GTX 1080 SC. I spent plenty of years on ATI/AMD GPUs. In fact before I switched back to Nvidia, I'd spent more years on team red product. It got to the point where I had to search forums like Rage3D to see if there were any workarounds for the driver problems I was having. Way back when they had Catalyst drivers, it was version 5.7 I think that made all Medal of Honor titles stop working. A guy on Rage3D figured out if you extract the OpenAl audio driver into the game directory, the games would then work. I called ATI's headquarters in Canada to let them know this. Instead of a thank you he was oblivious to the problem, and insisted the issue was happening because people didn't know how to install their drivers.
A whole three months later ATI put in their driver release notes at that time that they had discovered a problem with MoH titles not working (even though it was really me that 3 months prior TOLD them). A month later I checked back and they STILL hadn't come out with a fix for it. This was a wake up call for me that made me realize I needed to switch to Nvidia. The only problems in the last several years I've had with Nvidia is once in a while there will be a slight graphical glitch with ShadowPlay captures that are maybe at most 1 second long. I've had zero graphical problems in game while playing though.
A guy named Angel Trinidad used to release modified, streamlined ATI drivers, which he called Omega drivers. He said their stock drivers were known to have very bad installers and lots of unnecessary bloat. One of the worst driver problems AMD had recently was the ones for the 5700 XT. It took them 7 months to finally fix it. That kind of "support", if you can call it that, is unacceptable to most avid gamers.
Players that insist on Intel and Nvidia product are often labeled as elitists. I like to think of us as realists. As always in life, you get what you pay for. I've been down the bang for buck road and have seen it's pitfalls. Anymore, reliability, efficiency, and practicality take precedence for me over saving a few bucks. Life is too short to be fixing a lazy driver team's problems, and their smug denial and cockiness is even more insulting.
