SuB, you are correct, I showed an extreme. However my point of peoples pride is not invalidated by that.
AMD is a far bigger company with far more credibility. And I doubt, that all of the employees feel personally offended by Toms review.
I am aware that Tom will most likely continue to make reviews for AMD hardware, because he's a valuable business asset. Also my comment wasn't meant to show legitimate concern, it was more of a joke.
Edit:
Retail prices for the R9 290X in Germany:
569€ - 579€ (with Tax) for the Battlefield 4 Edition
529€ - 539€ (with Tax) for the normal Edition
(Prices vary depending on vendor)
Also: Does anyone know if the R9 290X comes with a Never Settle Forever key?
