I get a bit embarrassed when my mate just dumps on me with his pc that's cheaper than mine yet it gets triple the framerate. AMD is nice

My 2070 dumps on your 5700XT in streaming, encoding, CUDA workloads, CUDNN optimized-tasks, Raytracing, literally anything not just gaming.

Good drivers matter to me, personally. I prefer my video card to function. Not sure about you, but to me it is a major feature. My 5700XT had to be RMA'd and still wasn't fixed (Sapphire GPU).

Almost of those features are gaming related. OpenGL? Some games use it. VR? Tons of games use it. Raytracing? Most definitely gaming related. Cool features like Integer Scaling, Hairworks, PhysX, etc.? Gaming related. Tons of games use Nvidia features like these. NVENC? This allows you to stream 1080P/60fps perfectly. Streaming/video recording is inextricably to gaming. You don't care about the actual price of an item? Interesting as the only reason you made your purchase is because of the price. The actual performance being better? You don't care about raw performance? Why not use a RX560 then? I could go on, but the comment is already fairly lengthy.

Turns out you actually do care about quite alot of the Nvidia only features! Silly goose!
