AMD's Fury VS my Rage
My rage at the Fury GPU line-up, which in my opinion is a way of artificially increasing how much we pay for GPUs. If this carries on then we may see a future where GPUs become much more expensive than they are today. And what if this happens further down the pricing stack?! Imagine a world where you need to pay more than $200 to get an acceptable budget GPU. $300, even!
EDIT: It seems this opinion has offended a lot of people as being fear-stirring nonsense. Even I can't imagine huge price increases in the GPU market happening, but I can see how they MIGHT, based on what AMD and NVIDIA are laying the foundations for with their current high-end cards. I'm sorry if that offends you, so please find the most common arguments against this video listed out, and responded to, below:

STFU COMMIE THEY CAN CHARGE WHAT THEY LIKE ITS A FREE MARKET
True, and if we're willing to pay higher prices then they'd be stupid not to charge them. I GET it.

'OMG THE CONSOLE ISNT BASED ON THE 7850 YOU PUSSY-ASS FAGGOT'
Okay, the Xbox One is nearer to the 7790 and the Playstation 4 closer to the 7870. It's not an important part of this video and I didn't want to get hung up on technicalities. I mean, technically the PS4 isn't a 7870 since it's custom and is slightly less powerful and underclocked!

THE GEFORCE 970 ISN'T THE SAME AS THE 780 OMG TWAT
I never said it was, I have no idea how this rumour even started. Please stop saying that I did since it's making other people think I said that, which somehow makes it the truth and makes people hate me more.

OMG 380 IS BASED ON THE 285 WHICH IS NEW TECHNOLOGY YOU WANKER
...But still a rebrand of the 200 series, which is the key part. And I acknowledge the new architecture at 3:40 (About 20 seconds after you tried posting that angry comment about how I got it all wrong). I also show that the new architecture doesn't improve performance at all. In some cases, it's actually made worse when compared with the 280.

U THINK THE 290 IS THE SAME AS THE 7970 OMG I STOPED WATCHING TO DISLIKE ALL UR VIDSDS
No, I don't think it's the same, but I can understand why you MIGHT have thought that when you see that diagram at 1:22 . I knew as I was doing it that the 290 is more powerful, but to get it accurate would mess up the layout of the graph since some 200 series can't be directly compared to the 7000 series and I'd have to stagger some of them and it would end up looking messy and confused. I didn't think it was worth it since the picture was only meant to show the newer generation sliding up slightly when compared with the older one, and the audience that this benefitted would be more confused from a technically correct comparison. But with hindsight, it would have saved me a few death-threats to do it right so in the future I'll try a
