AMD Disses Nvidia on YouTube
PrintAMD on Monday lobbed the first verbal assault at Nvidia in a humorous YouTube video poking fun at Fermi, paving the way for what could become an epic battle of marketing minds taking aim at your gaming hardware dollars.
The video starts off in a mock SWAT briefing room where a team of law enforcement officials discuss a suburban home that seems suspicious because of the amount of heat detected from their overhead infrared cameras.
"Based on those suspicions, we took a look at their energy consumption," the head dude in charge explains as he shows a graph revealing how much more power the questionable suburban home is using compared to an average home.
So what exactly did they find when raiding the home?
"Fermi again. That's the third time this week," one of the SWAT team members says.
Check out the video here.

they replaced my 8400M with a working GPU on my laptop. Otherwise, I will never buy their crap again! Only AMDs for me from now on-at least they work!

I worked at nvidia for 6 years and AMD for over 3. I don't really care whose graphics are better. AMD will never will a marketing war against nvidia.

Sure, when you look at most Fermi offerings, they do guzzle power. But the latest Fermi offering, GTX 460, sips less power than the 5850 and 5830, runs cooler, quieter, and performs about the same if not better. Better if you're using DirectX 11 heavy features.

You forgot the %60 to %95 scaling in SLI. It's a very nice looking card.
