I switched to my first AMD in like 12 years in 2022. Feels good.
Yup, I did as well, roughly around the same time. It's so much cheaper (outside of certain use cases where Intel/Nvidia may be useful) for what you can get. I don't know why, aside from habit and good marketing, normies keep getting Intel/Nvidia. AMD at present provides everything most people need, at much lower costs. For my video card especially, I would have had to step multiple tiers down if I'd wanted Nvidia.
The normies just hear "Muh raytracing" then see the nvidia cards outperforming amd. so they will then go buy an nvidia card instead.
The 7800xt card amd recently released is a beast for its price tbh. and if you dont really care about rtx, then its one of the best buys you can do. unless you really need that rtx 4090 ti. But if you do, theres no helping you anyway.

To be fair, that's true for most of their modern cards.

I hope those people are either industry professionals of some sort, or really filthy rich. Any normie gamer who gets a 4090 because it's the top of the line is retarded. You can get even a 7900 XTX for around half the price. It will do almost anything a 4090 can do, almost as well, in real world gaming applications.
