It's the same for both Nvidia and Intel: I dislike the companies for the reasons you mentioned, but they do make superior products compared to AMD.

In Nvidia's case, they're a step ahead with the technology and they also put more effort into efficient cooling, which is nice if you value your ears, and evergy saving. They also seem to be constantly first with new software features (automatic game settings, recording, streaming, ...).

AMD, with both CPUs and GPUs, offer comparable speed at lower prices, but not a comparable product. If they did, I'd drop Intel/Nvidia in a heartbeat.
