    Because a lot of people just buy NVIDIA because it’s NVIDIA still

      A lot of people buy Nshitia (me included) because of Cuda and DLSS which are years ahead of AMD and decades ahead of Intel. Even with worse driver support on Linux, Nvidia still outpreforms AMD cards of the same class on every front, except net power consumtion.

        From what I’ve seen they are leading in power consumption as well. Yes, 5090 is more power hungry than any AMD consumer GPU right now but it also comes with adequately higher performance.

          With respect to per-watt metrics, 4090 was such an efficiency leap that 5090 struggles to match it. AFAIK 4090 still holds the efficiency crown in discrete graphics. (Maybe not for other acceleration tasks. Also driver/FW updates sometimes shift benchmark standings over time.)
