Without a response from AMD, apart from various price drops and tweaks to its bundled games, those Nvidia cards were easy to recommend for buyers craving high-end performance for gaming at resolutions above 1080p (1,920x1,080 pixels).īut "above 1080p," these days, means a lot more than the 2,560x1,440- and 2,560x1,600-pixel screens that defined the high end for years.

In the fall of 2014, Nvidia delivered an impressive card in the GeForce GTX 980, and followed it up with the even more powerful (though pricey) $1,000 GeForce GTX Titan X in the spring of 2015. Over the last year or so, if you've looked at the state of the market for high-end video cards for PC gaming, it's been game, set, and Nvidia.
