Therein lies the problem -Good for them. I've had great Nvidia cards, but not in a long time now. I just don't like their practices.

I feel like this effort is too little, too late. Their oppressive, anti-consumer, anti-competitive tactics should have been on full display and constantly criticized by the tech media over the years. Instead it always gets swept under the rug, forgotten the next day, completely ignored on the next review cycle."Gamers, rise up!"
Good luck, all this is probably have the effect of Jensen buying one less leather jacked during the holy day.
nv has spent decades hosing money on pr and that has built a sizeable mindset that is hard to break, but so did intel and look where they are now.I feel like this effort is too little, too late.

Personally it took me until Turing's announcement to really start to notice everything they were doing. I've been a strong anti-nvidia voice ever since, but most people don't care and don't want to hear or think about it and just go "it's business, everyone does stuff like that" and hand-wave away their personal responsibility as a consumer to care about their own best self-interest.
All signs point to this being the case. It is both a lackluster and unprecedented disaster of a generation. It coming at a time when gaming is the lowest share of revenue it has ever been, is no coincidence.or did they just decide to punt on 50X0 series because they dont care?
Therein lies the problem -
I can't even include myself. I bought an open box $140 3040ti 6GB.
Sometimes, integrity is looking the bully in the eye and calling his bluff. Steve's response to nVidia's thinly-veiled threats:

And the coupon code... and the actual telling nVidia on the video multiple times they can go "fornicate" (different word) themselvesIt's not only his shirt, right? The writing in the buildings too?
The payout on the class action over the GTX 970 did. If you search this forum, you can find shills defending them for it too. It's what they do; provide trinkets and NDA access in exchange for astroturfing and gaslighting. Worse yet, many do it for free because their amygdala is too big. Over a decade later we see the fruit it bore, and it is bountiful. AMD fumbling, bumbling, stumbling, most of the time, sealed the deal.Did any past case hurt their profits?
The last Nvidia card I considered was a 1060 6GB. I got the RX 480 8GB instead. The last one I actually owned was the amazing 8800GT. What I find amazing is that even when AMD/ATi clearly had the far better cards Nvidia still held on to its market share lead. That shows you what kind of mindshare they have over their zombies.
