Apparently the 5700 xt specifically has terrible driver issues. DDU’ing and installing fresh has helped, but hasn’t resolved issues completely. I’ll get driver crashes very often in some games that should have no problems, I’ll get incredibly low fps in others. Not exaggerating, in remnant 2 I got 4 fps, I could count the fps manually. Hunt showdown has similarly terrible performance and will crash my computer within 10 minutes. Helldivers 2 had similar issues, that got way better after DDUing but are now back. I’m sick of it

Real talk for a sec my amd radeon 5700 rx has been nothing but fucking miserable to use and Im so fucking sick of it and everyone keeps shitting on nvidia so like is there another fucking option? Cause I’m seriously never going to buy another amd card again.

Yeah, that statement was a bit naive, but some companies do business ethically, and some throw ethics out the window in pursuit of profits. The latter is basically a requirement for publically traded companies, and still pretty rare among privately owned businesses. I hate to speak in defense of any company but in my opinion valve has been pretty consistently ethical. Don’t take my word for it though, I’m just a random person on the internet, I could have missed some shitty practices.

Anyways my original point was that while of course all businesses are driven by profit, some aren’t driven by it to the exclusion of all else.
