Thinking of upgrading my graphics card and I'm divided between the two giants. At the moment I have 3 monitors that are being run by an AMD card. I'll list what I like, and what bothers me with my system. I'm hoping to get some quality opinions about both, AMD & Nvidia, systems.
My positives about the AMD system:
+Graphics cards have more vRam, which is good for multi-monitor
+Graphics cards are cheaper
+Quite easy setup, bezel compensation
+HydraGrid
My negatives about the AMD system:
-Drivers are bad
-The monitor connected to DisplayPort is tearing a little
-Some windows maximize over all 3 screens
-Graphic cards can run hot
-Many bad cards, that must be replaced
I don't own an Nvidia system, so I can't describe it, but from my previous experience I know:
+Great driver support
+Good build quality
-Expensive cards
