AMD Hit The Jackpot With Next Generation Consoles

Mobile & Apps: "Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (AMD), is on a high this year as the company appears to be providing key components for all three next generation consoles. Profit margins for 2013 to 2019 should be lucrative for AMD, as all three consoles are expected to sell over 70 million units during their lifetimes."

Whats wrong Nvidia.
They have always brought top tiered Video Cards on the market.

Yes their high end cards were priced high (but they were powerful). The Mid range and low range is priced quite competitively.

NVidia breaks thermal rules with their chipsets so it's their fault and the way they screwed Microsoft probably left a sour taste in some people's mouth

Ppl are quite closed minded, just look what happened when AMD bought ATI, they lost a alot of market share since then vs Intel and Nvidia.

Amd/ATI has been producing things for consoles for quite some time now, and all of a sudden the console fanboys think its a complete win for AMD/ATI.... the market is not only geared to consoles.

Just look at the stock prices of Intel, NVDA, AMD. Just look at how things fluctuated and this will show a general Idea on how well the company has been doing in the past 5 years.

@Erudito87
hd7970 is a top end graphics card. It is faster and in average run games at much higher frame rate compared to GTX670. A better comparison would be HD7970 Vs GTX680. Below are benchmarks comparisons which proves HD7970 slaughter GT670.

there very little difference between the 670 and 680 but for the very most part the 670 does beat the 7970
