  To some extent it comes down to nvidia’s software. Like, some people like their upscaling, and I’ve heard from streamers that they need them for NVENC.

  On the other hand, their Linux drivers are awful and they’ve been less than cooperative on that front in the past.

    They’ve been getting a lot better after hiring that one guy to work on their open source drivers. I’m curious how good they’re going to be in a year or so.

      Oh yah, for sure 90% of people shouldn’t be wasting the money on Nvidia cards at this point. There are very few situations where they make sense.

      Intel and AMD both have way better price to performance cards.
