For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.

Nvidia snatched them up years ago.

That's why the 5000 series of cards had the FX attached to them.

it kills me that their machines are so overpriced

I priced out their media center pc

their cost $16k+

I can build it exactly the same for under $3k, under $4k for sure

They really are overpriced. Mostly for those people who want the best have the money to blow and dont want to do anything themselves.
