Not exactly in hardware, but when it comes to morals.. AMD is far above Nvidia.

AMD created Vulkan API which will unite gamers across platforms - this is a GOOD thing.

AMD open sources the majority of the software and drivers they create - this is also a VERY good thing.

And what has Nvidia done? Steal AMD's code, close source it, and divide the gaming community?

great

Nvidia has better Linux drivers in my experience.

@GNU

Well yeah, AMD Linux drivers are open source, and aren't priority. So the open source drivers are a huge project.

Once the AMDGPU-PRO Driver for Linux is good, then Linux will have decent AMD drivers.

There are already decent GPU drivers for AMD in the newest Linux kernels, the problem is that not a lot of distros have the shiniest newest kernels and a lot of companies don't support the open source drivers.

And yes, in general AMD has better morals than Nvidia.
But when I got an AMD card, installed the drivers and my computer crashes (on Linux), I retried it like 7 times, each time my PC crashed and had to reinstall the distro from scratch.

When I reached out their support them they said: "We can not help you unless you use Ubuntu" and then I was like... I'll just pick up Nvidia the next time.

AMD doesn't bribe video game developers to make their games run worse on their competitors hardware

@krazy
That only matters for the gamers, but for programmers / game creators this argument is a pretty big deal.
