An NVIDIA consumer GPU sells for 50+% or more than an equivalent AMD GPU. Because people are buying NVIDIA GPUs to run local models instead of AMD ones.
I did the same thing, I paid 50% more to get an 5070 Ti instead of the equivalent AMD.
This is probably good for gamers, AMD GPUs are not price inflating to the same degree as NVIDIA, because they are bad at LLMs.
> That was the reason for comparing them in the first place: based on performance, they are direct competitors, or at least they are meant to be. However, as things stand today, there is a massive price divide between the two, with the RTX Ti GPU now commanding a premium of more than 50%.
AMD also deprecates cards and throw in wrenches for cards that are hot in used markets. Latest ROCm kind of works on MI50 but requisite files are taken out of just standard Ubuntu installation. They truly don't understand marketing.
They are actually great at LLMs but you need to invest in keeping up with community tuning efforts. But I am fine with most thinking they are bad at LLMs, because I keep buying more of them!
