You'd like to think, with a top of the line card costing literally as much as my car, they'd have that shit on lockdown....

People just keep buying Nvidia, so no need for them to change. AMD has a pretty small share of the GPU market, and Nvidia makes the majority of their money with gpus for data centers anyways.

We can only hope there's a bit more competition in the future

And why wouldn't they? (they = average Windows gamer)

AMD decided that my Vega-based iGPU had enough driver updates. Reminder that Vega was kept in iGPUs for quite some time. Vulkan is completely broken under Windows, so I need to enable my NVidia dGPU for things like Doom I+II and Quake I.

It's different under Linux where Radeon drivers are open source and developed by Valve and others.

I feel that pain too, I had an Intel Skull Canyon NUC with the VEGA 56, and one day, no more graphics drivers!

Still mad about it, but not as mad as I am about Nvidia's prices.
