Because the active userbase of burggit is so small, I'm keeping it as fairly "anything goes" for now. Feel free to post memes, informative videos, fan art, reviews, discussion threads, articles, cosplay, or whatever else you can think if that is gaming related.

No lewd pictures in the url field, but you can talk about nsfw games.

Usually, these gaming comparisons only compare the absolute highest end, most expensive options. I like when the more budget – friendly options get compared, since not everyone has $600+ to spend on a GPU.

Glad I could help with your decision. AMD is at a huge disadvantage, Nvidia makes a bunch of proprietary technology which AMD can't even hope to support. Where as most AMD tech is open source, and Nvidia can just, plop support for whatever it is into their cards with little to no effort on their part. But as a user, it's hard to sit there and buy AMD when I actively get hindered when trying to do things which, a user should be able to do without issue. So, while I definitely appreciate AMD and their efforts, I will probably go with Nvidia for my next GPU upgrade, if this trend continues.

Yep, feels a lot like IE6 of days past, where Netscape was trying to do the right thing, but got overshadowed. Maybe eventually there will be a Firefox-style happy ending for AMD as well?

I found out that the 3060 should work decently for AI, esp since it has a good amount of VRAM. And having weird app glitches doesn't sound like fun. It also made me remember the custom color calibration I'm applying to this IPS panel, which I might have to redo if I went to AMD. Although the NVIDIA driver is closed source and the UI downlevel, it does seems to be pretty stable. So I went with it.
