I moved to a 9070XT from a 3070 and love it. I am a Linux gamer convert after falling in love with Steam OS. Nvidia on Linux is too much of a hassle imo. Plus my 9070XT on Linux smokes my 3070 on windows.
For a Linux user AMD is definitely better but it’s morally no different than NVIDIA. Lisa Su is all-in on AI and the Trump admin. Which is what I’m assuming they meant by saying nobody wants to sell them a new GPU.
I do not buy products based on company morals. There is almost no publicly traded company that won’t sell the consumer out in a heartbeat.
If I bought components based on company good/bad I wouldn’t even be able to build a computer.
NVIDIA - Bad, Ai bubble, oligarchy
AMD - Just as bad, Nvidia coat tail rider, oligarchy
Intel - Bad, poor consumer practices for years
Any company making RAM- bad, participates in price fixing and only get a slap on the wrist.
The only company on this planet I will blindly buy from is Costco. The CEO said “if you change the price of the $1.50 hotdog combo I’ll fucking kill you” - good
Otherwise I just buy what I need from where I can get it and move on with my life. Even avoiding Amazon is dumb since they make most of their money from AWS which means you’d have to boycott most of the internet.
