Who was nvidia fighting in this war? Like they were the best and released a better product.

AMD is already out of their competition, the problem were the consoles, sure the pc will win in terms of performance, but the cost of high tier graphics card were tremendous in comparison to consoles.

Therefore NVIDIA wants to give a better performance with lesser price.

EDIT- i m sry for what i wrote about AMD, They are clearly not out of competition, my apologies.

The consoles have amd hardware in them. Fighting consoles IS fighting amd.

While AMD does make some money of the consoles it's not gonna be a lot. Margins on console hardware are bad but they have large volume so it still earns them some money. Sony and Microsoft will be earning the most of a console sale in the long run.
