Also, "support for AAA games" isn't really a graphics card feature, per se. AAA development studios choose what hardware they want to support, and many choose to target Nvidia technologies (e.g. HairWorks).

GPU Performance per dollar.

NVIDIA has the best high-end GPUs each generation, and NVIDIA is often more power efficient, but AMD is often competitive or slightly ahead in GPU performance per dollar, particularly in the low/mid-range end of the market.

I agree on the drivers though, Nvidia drivers have always worked much better, I've avoided the past 2 generations of AMD graphics because of this. They may have gotten better.

Just upgraded to a GTX 1080 a few months ago when I went back to single monitor (40" 4k) from two 27's... works very well, just needs a little more oomph in gaming at 4k though, next gen should be great at 4k though. I don't really game much, so it's been great for me.

I'm not sure what will come out of AMD, but think they are ahead of intel for integrated cpu/gpu though.

AMD APUs are a good value option at the very bottom of the market, but the margins on a $25 Sempron can't be good.
