In reality they don't care about the competition at all. They just want an excuse for Nvidia to lower the price.

Okay but to be honest AMD didn't compete for what 6/7 years? The 1080 came out and they literally didn't drop a card that even matched 1080 performance for what like 3 years, and then by that point they were just permanently a generation behind in terms of performance. Because by the time they finally dropped the 1080 level performance the 2080 came out. I think they finally competed in the last generation on the three series towards the end? And I have no idea where we stand now. 

So the 290X was my last AMD card, had lots of problems and then Nvidia has been smooth for me ever since. 

I very much would like competition but that also means they have to compete.
