GPU Driver Issues (Nvidia vs AMD vs Intel)

[nerv]

Honestly if stuff continues as of right now, team red will mop the floor with nvidia

[legendsocool]

I love AMD’s adrenaline it is such a nice layout and easy to use unlike Nvidia’s butI got my GPU back in 2019 being a 2080 cause I wanted Nvenc

Hardcore Nvidia fanboys will believe the opposite anyways, no matter what you tell them. They will defend their trillion dollar company religiously. And for the record, i am neutral on both sides, i don't like the current heavily stagnated GPU market and their scummy marketing practices from both sides.

Only reason I'm getting an NVIDIA card is because I'm not buying it new. I refuse to support them directly

[OO]

To be fair, gamers aren't the only people who buy GPUs.

i was leaning towards 3060 but after seeing the price and performance difference between 6700 and 3060 I'll go with 6700 and not to forget amd giving starfield for free with selected cpu and gpu

Bruh 3 out of my 4 AMD card broke whereas all my nvidia gpu haven't broke
Old AMD card have sooo many driver issues whereas Nvidia doesn't, I want to love Amd but I'm having a curse with them

I’ve been using cards from both brands since TNT Riva and Rage 128.

I’ve had a lot of problems with radeon drivers over the…decades….but they’ve really got them figured out how. They’re great 😊

[chikirin]

I've had really bad AMD drivers about 3 years ago but nowadays they're absolutely good and I'm so glad I stuck with them

I had issues with drivers just recently. A new driver launch for nVidia that optimised new 40 series features in some games, caused my 970 to crash. After rolling back I had no more issues

[RedBoyRedstone]

The "problem" with amd drivers is that nvidia is so popular that companies optimize their games for nvidia better than amd just for the fact of market share.

[shawnpaulzuccarellorizzo]

Fair enough. I'm older, so I dealt extensively in the late 90s and early 2ks with Radeon GPUs. I hated them because of those drivers and switched to Nvidia around the 6600 GT era. I guess I haven't given AMD consideration in a very long time, but from my perspective....I've been burned too many times to even consider it.

I personally find AMD Radeon Software to be more straightforward.

[MrLuisf]

I've only used AMD dedicated gpu's in the past. Yesterday I got my first nvidea, and the PC wouldn't even recognize the card before I installed the drivers. I guess the drivers for the Radeon were always installed with the Ryzen software somehow, because everytime I formatted the system, it would always recognize the Radeon. These days the only reason I see to buy nvidea is if you want to run some language models locally. Otherwise, AMD has much better value for money 💰

What ram would u recommend for an intel i7 7700k and a rtx 3060?

[thelegendaryck]

I’ve had issues with Vega 64 drivers, but minimal to no issues with nvidia and older radeon cards

[william]

For me at least i need Nvidia's drivers for quite a few AI programs and some minecraft mods and official and unofficial shaders.

So at least if you ask me its perfectly reasonable to want to buy an nvidea still for there drivers (even for gaming)

I've been using the XFX 7900xt for about a month now, and have been seeing consistent driver crashes in multiple games in 1440p high to ultra settings. So the driver issues are definitely there, idk if it's not as common or something. I usually can't go more than about 2 hours without a crash in battlefield 2042, dying light 2, Starfield, call of duty, BG3. It's usually a toss up whether I'll have problems or not.

[PrimeVG]

For the first time in 12 years of using Nvidia GPUs, I have had driver issues like crazy recently.

[FunkyMoneyMan]

I’ve always had AMD and I just got nvidia and I’m kinda excited. I always had issues with AMD personally and driver issues
