So...what's going on here?  How come so many reviews seem to avoid making a ballsy conclusion?  How come they are often entirely ignorant of what people are looking for?

In general as consumers we need to be more willing to switch between brands. I have ZERO loyalty to any brand. I don’t use RT and play competitive MP games so it’s not a big deal going between AMD and NVIDIA.

Upvoted and I agree. If something has performed well for me in the past, I will stick to a brand; unless it gets way too expensive. I think it is wise to be more pragmatic about electronics and cars for example. Point well made.
