To be fair, so is AMD, lol. They've gotten the support they have because they opened their driver stack. If they didn't, I guarantee it would have been just as slow or worse than Nvidia's support
The drawback to the open source approach is you need to be on bleeding edge kernel and mesa versions for new hardware support (and even then, it's not immediate). With Nvidia's blob, it's pretty much immediate support
AMD = Smart and comunity orientated... Intel + nVidia = Self centered with only their own interests in mind, giving a fck about the consumers if they keep buying their crap
My last Nvidia was the 970, the one advertised as 4gb vram but actually only 3.5. I got a class action check for like.. I don't remember, like $15 I think. What a joke
