for money/extreme greed
Okay well that's the low-hanging fruit but explain to me the correlation? How does confusing their customers fuel their greed?
Uninformed buyers will buy the 8GB card get a poor experience and will be forced to buy a new card sooner than later.
So their strategy is making and selling shitty cards at high prices? Don't you think that would just make consumers consider a competing brand in the future?
For most consumers it might not, the amount of nvidia ~~propaganda~~ advertisement in games is huge.
Yea I don't know why buying a shitty product should convince me to throw more money at the company. They don't have a monopoly, so I would just go to their competitor instead.
The reviews said that it was a better card than the other brand.
Just imagine how bad those must have been!
They don't know they've been ripped off.
It's like teens and IPhones, they don't care if they pickup a used 3 year old iPhone for more money than a new Android, they want the iPhone branding
