Oh, that doesn't mean it's going to effect everyone. That's not the argument I'm trying to make. I'm just saying that it is real, and does effect some.

If you have a great experience with your card, by all means, keep using it. I'm not here to tell you otherwise. After all, what works best for one, doesn't always work best for another. I'm not here to tell you AMD is bad for you. If it works great in your setup, there's no reason for you to worry about it at all.

The cards just don't seem to work their best in my particular setup. I can't speak for everyone though.

On the topic of this particular article and related reviews, however, I do like the latency based approach to testing. It seems to fall into line with how my system behaves with these cards.
