Hi there
as a user of AMD, INTEL and NVIDIA I'd have to say after trying alternatives I'm back to the INTEL fold -- I7 processor, Intel HD Graphics etc. I have used AMD and Nvidia in the past but as of May 2013 these companies just don't cut it any more -- they have had their chance and seem to have blown it.
Extreme gamers might have another take but for extremely high graphics performance and hardware that always works I'm afraid whatever you might think of the monopoly situation I'm back with INTEL again and not regretting it -- and I did give the others a decent chance too.
Smartphones/ tablets etc might give other hardware manufacturers a look in but for computers IMO it's GAME OVER for Nvidia and AMD unless they can come up with something CHEAP and STUNNING very QUICKLY - preferably ASAP. Definitely the "Last Chance Saloon" for these guys.
Cheers
