A lot of people buy Nshitia (me included) because of Cuda and DLSS which are years ahead of AMD and decades ahead of Intel. Even with worse driver support on Linux, Nvidia still outpreforms AMD cards of the same class on every front, except net power consumtion.
It's fine if you buy it because you know what you need and know that you're paying more because of X. I'm talking about people that buy it just because it's NVIDIA with no thought for anything else.
From what I've seen they are leading in power consumption as well. Yes, 5090 is more power hungry than any AMD consumer GPU right now but it also comes with adequately higher performance.
Hope it was worth it
And thanks, btw
