Which is better AMD or Nvidia? I see an AMD Fury and also an Nvidia Titan but the AMD stuff costs much less. Why is this? Is the Nvidia that much better?
 


In terms of why NVIDIA is more expensive, is because NVIDIA doesn't really have much competition. AMD's market control is about 30-40%, while NVIDIA dominates most of the market. So NVIDIA really controls their prices based on what AMD releases. NVIDIA recently did a price cut on 980s and I believe 970s, but that was because AMD released fiji

Unless your going for a super low budget build Nvidia is better. Runs so much cooler, Smoother, Better drivers. Well worth the money if you ask me. If you answer a few questions i can give a better specific graphics card recommendation.

What are you using the card for? Budget? gaming?

Agreed it depends no what cards and which drivers. In my experience over the years I've found that about 80% of the time nvidia comes out on top of both categories. Now thats my experience take it or leave it with a grain of salt :) but thats what i believe is correct.
