Nah, these off topic rants are pretty much there in every single topic here. Every AMD/nVidia article has bunch of people just ranting without even trying to read the topic.


When the topic is explicitly a popularity contest, talking about which one is better is pretty reasonable.


No, ranting how nVidia kicked your dog because your favorite screensaver doesn't work in a topic about CUDA computation on Linux is not reasonable.

That doesn't sound like a topic about a popularity contest. So why did you say "No"? Your statement doesn't disagree with mine.
