Why on Earth would you say that? Nvidia's drivers are so poor right now with AMD as weak as they are. With no competition I really don't see how Nvidia could not continue to slide down the slope to the abyss that they are on. Great hardware means nothing when your code monkeys are flunk outs from Devry...
Hopefully this will be the lethal blow that is needed to terminate AMD.

Wonderful. Then we get to buy way overpriced GPUs with little innovation, just like Intel is doing to us on the CPU side since AMD dropped the ball.
Ya know, I used to love AMD. They made great cards and had good drivers.
But now, their cards do not have a RAMDAC or a DVI-TMDS transmitter. The fastest AMD card with a DAC is the 7970/7990. The fastest AMD cards with TMDS-DVI is the 290X/295X2. Missing a RAMDAC means that the cards cannot be used with analog CRTs. Missing a DVI-TMDS transmitter means that the cards cannot be used with digital LCDs that use DVI. Basically, Furies and Fury Xs cannot be used with any monitor that isn't a crappy, pre-built LCD that has DisplayPort or HDMI.
Adapters cannot convert digital to analog and get a usable signal (max is something like 1600x1200@60Hz). Adapters also cannot convert DP or HDMI to DVI with pixel clocks above 330. A pixel clock of 330 is totally usable, but you aren't going to get over 2560x1440@80Hz or 1920x1080@144.

This is one of the most epic troll post I've seen.
I REALLLY REALLLLY Need all my games to run at 144 FPS or I'll dieeeeee mom!
Just had to throw that blow in there at nvidia huh?
Not sure what problems you're having with their drivers, but they've been great for me and all the games i've played on Windows 10

Why would you want that?
So someone else takes it place

In before S3 Savage3D or Matrox coming back...

Are you actually this dense??

I wonder what the chances are that they'll stick with the Feb/Mar release for the new Titan....
Like who?
Yeah and then you can pay even more for Nvidia hardware that doesn't improve as much every year.
So someone else takes it place
Like who?
Anyone other than AMD. Heck they don't even have to buy it.
The market is there and its becoming more attractive with all the 4k and VR stuff. Someone else will want a piece of that pie.
The latest mobile GPUs are becoming quite strong. Now I'm not saying PowerVR could make a titan killer tomorrow but something that can take upon the GTX960 would be a good start.
Modern game running at 144fps full details please, 1080p There's a reason gsync and freesync exist.People generally buy monitors with a high refresh rate so that they can use it at a high refresh rate.
You would expect people to do what, run their 144Hz monitor at 60Hz and act like it's no big deal?

Nvidia could have easily priced the GTX 970 at $400-$500 but they didn't.Terrible idea. Unless you want to pay $1000 for mid-range cards in the future.
Probably pretty good if HBM 2 is already in test pilot phase and slated for mass production in 2016. It makes sense from a quantity point of view to release Titan first since early samples will be limited and they can charge a premium for it and get great PR for Pascal. This time I don't think we'll see a 980 Ti equivalent so quickly unless AMD surprises us.
