I'll likely switch to AMD when they improve their CAD software support, sadly at the moment it's atrocious. Nvidia has been dominating the professional market for decades and hopefully it changes someday.

Well said! CAD is certainly a beast, and only runs well(ish) enough with Nvidia. (Because let's be honest - Solid Works just loves crashing all the time no matter your GPU power)

There was a time Nvidia had the same corner of the market in VFX and video editing. That's how I ended up being locked in with them too. 

However, over the years AMD started offering serious competition to Nvidia's dominance in that market. Easily to the point where the difference between the two systems is marginal at best (%15 performance hit at worst). 

I imagine they'll go for CAD software next as that's another corner they could certainly take some share away from!

Fingers crossed in time you have some options like I did!
