Nvidia have done a lot to lock people into their ecosystem lately, from Shield In-Home streaming, G-Sync, 3DVision, Physx, CUDA, the Geforce Experience and even through GameWorks.
TBH right now I don't trust Nvidia's business decisions as they are very anti-competitive. AMD by contrast are very open standards heavy, but a lot of this is due to them being the underdog with less money to pump into R&D.
Nvidia are a company that make fantastic hardware, but I do think they do too much to lock people into their ecosystem. It is both a good thing and a bad thing IMHO, Nvidia offers these things, but they also limit your options to look elsewhere.
Completely agree with the above and an investigation is by no means warranted. Besides thanks to all the moronic decisions Nvidia has been making, AMD has been given many opportunities to exploit. Therefor their actions are indeed benefiting the consumers. I am not at all a fan of companies finding ways to lock people into their ecosystem, however look at all the new technology we have gotten thanks to AMD wanting to make their products competitive and Nvidia doing what they love to do.
