I am just going to start this thread by saying this is my opinion of what I think about these two companys. Some of this info provided might not be true(it probably is.)
AMD: AMD's GPUs are for people who don't want to spend alot but don't want to get a really crappy card. AMD does have high end cards like the R9 295X2 that is a complete beast.(you can find it here- http://www.amd.com/en-us/products/graphics/desktop/r9) Their cards are (apparently) loud and run hot but if you have good cooling and foam pads on the inside to block out some sound, you are good. AMD's card 'R9 270' Is cheap, around 200$. But that card is relatively powerful and is very good for lower end PCs.(I would recommend getting the Gaming version if you want the most out of it.) So in conclusion AMD can be high end at times but brings you a mid to high end experience. (you can also find the R9 270 Gaming Edition here - http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127769
nVidia: nVidia's cards are extremely powerful, an example of that is the GTX 780Ti and the GTX Titan, the only downside to getting one of these cards is they are going to be expensive. So you probably wouldn't get one for your first PC.(Because you're probably not packing 1000$ just for the GPU alone.) But, there is cheaper GPUs that nVidia makes like the GTX 980 there most advanced card yet.(500$-700$) or you could get a GTX 960 ( http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487091) for only $255. The GTX 960 is powerful and affordable and you can find some benchmarks here - http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nvidia-geforce-gtx-960,4038-6.html . So in conclusion nVidia is a high end GPU company that you can trust them that there cards will bring you the optimal experience. (most of the time)
