Hardly? Last generation the 290x was easily competitive with the 780 Ti, particularly at higher resolution.
This generation the Fury and Fury X aren't quite as good as the 980 Ti (turns out Maxwell is really good) but aren't bad either.
I like AMD, but CUDA >>> OpenCL, so for any scientific computing Nvidia is the way to go. For gaming the 970, 980, and 980 Ti are too good this time around. AMD isn't far behind however, and next generation could easily flip things around.
- mahouse 11y agoAMD tessellation performance is a joke compared to nVidia's. And that's only the beginning. Benchmarks are useless for most things because they are always fabricated or don't refer to real world scenarios. For example, Firefox JS engine is always very fast in benchmarks, but in the real world we know how it goes. Same with everything.
