Of course it doesn't change anything for the player.
But I'm sure nVidia has give, a lot to Epic and/or Atari for their name to be displayed on the box and ingame. And they don't want you to change that.
If Epic was acting "okay guys, your game, do watcha want", I don't think nVidia would find it funny.
well, i love nvidia...yeah i said i i love them lol. well enough screwin around i just really like there products. ive owned nvidias my whole life and ive had many many cards/pcs. they have never ever once givein me a problem and have never once not perfomed well enough. i have also heard of ati screwing people over when things dont work properly. i also know first hand that there are some things that SOME ati cards cant do that SOME nvidias can do such as the duel moniters on 1 pc. my bro runs a 9800 and yeah he can run duel monitors but the window bar on the bottom does not extend though both moniters its only one one and it looks soo haggard. unlike every nvidia ive ever had was able to to extend the bar though both screens. i know its nit picking but still it just something that 1 ups its self over the compition.
um did i not just say in my last post that my brother is running an ati right now and he does live with me. hence im on his computer on basicly almost a daily basis so yeah i can juge the difrence between the 2 and yeah i do know. dont be so quick to judge
also ive been a gameer for life and yes have played on both ati and nvidia cards befor past and present. and nvidia gives games a difrent feel than ati does. its something hard to explane but it does. i guess its kindove like coke and pepsi no one really knows why each person perfers the other but people do
dude im not saying ati is bad lol im just saying i perfer nvidias thats all. and ive said what my bro cant do on his. mabye its just his card or maybe he doesnt know how to do it but when he runs his duel moniters the taskbar only showes up on the left moniter and does not extend into the right one. but in the end its still a good card im not saying that im just saying that if i had to choose nvidia would always be my choice.
Both are good companies and the consumer is better off with both making competitive products. I will admit that the Geforce FX series of cards was utter trash compared to the fully DX9 compliant Radeons, but bashing Nvidia as a company is retarded.
Buy what you like, but root for both companies because competition breeds a better product and lower prices. Same with processors. Without AMD, we'd be paying Intel several hundred more dollars for processors much slower than what we have today.
