That kind of comment always feels a bit weird to me; are you basing AMD's worth as a GPU manufacturer on that one bad experience?

Absolutely, if a company I am trying for the first time gives me a bad experience, I will not go back. That's me giving them a chance, and AMD fucked up that chance and I couldn't even get a refund for like a $200 card. Choosing to try a different option resulted in me wasting time and money, and it pushed back my rig working for half a year until i could afford a working card again which really pissed me off.

I didn't know that about intel cards, I'll have to try one for my next upgrade if I can find on their site that they are supported.
