It's just awful. Fermi -> Perf watt doesn't matter / Perf watt matters! based on team membership. kepler/tahiti -> Perf watt doesn't matter / Perf watt matters! flip flopped based on team, same for hawaii through maxwell. Now all of a sudden the teams have switched yet again. It's just so transparently a load of bull. Pretty sad really. I have maintained, and will continue to maintain that I don't give a single flying buck about power consumption except insofar as it allows higher performance. With the limited exception of mining cards, where perf/watt = profit. Give me price/perf and give me absolute perf.
It'a about sacrifices. Always has and always will be. People purchasing 390/x were sacrificing efficiency for longevity and performance/$, while 970/80 owners were left with efficiency and brand name.Agree 100%. Electricity is cheap enough. Perf/$ is king.
Forum visitors had to be quite retarded for not not getting this after following a few out of the many threads here. There is enough competent technical crap to make up for all the trolling, flaming, fanboys, etc..
