NVIDIA Plays the Victim & GPP Info Dump
7,533Our info dump on everything we collected on GPP up until now, nVidia's now-defunct "GeForce Partner Program."
Buy GN's glass logo cube or Modmat! https://store.gamersnexus.net/ These purchases will help support us in making videos like this, given the obvious relationship hits we take.
We talk about issues we have with nVidia's GeForce Partner Program retirement letter, which frames the situation as if nVidia is the victim and that consumers and media are "why we can't have nice things." This discussion also goes into some concerns we have with the over-arching PC hardware industry, which has become increasingly "influencer" focused, thus reducing capacity of manufacturers to withstand criticism. Any criticism is now perceived as a slight, even with a long-standing history of professional product reviews.
Finally, we add some of our source information on what was happening with GPP.

Links to Amazon and Newegg are typically monetized on our channel (affiliate links) and may return a commission of sales to us from the retailer. This is unrelated to the product manufacturer. Any advertisements or sponsorships are disclosed within the video ("this video is brought to you by") and above the fold in the description. We do not ever produce paid content or "sponsored content" (meaning that the content is our idea and is not funded externally aside from whatever ad placement is in the beginning) and we do not ever charge manufacturers for coverage.
