Why? Do you have something to back this up? AMD's pricing is genius as they released a very strong performing card and are selling it at a bargain compared to what Nvidia has been raping its customers over the 770 -Titan cards over the last year and a half.  This in turn has forced Nvidia to drop the prices of their 700 series cards inline with AMD to compete.  If anything die hard Nvidia fans should be happy with AMD's release of the 290 and 290X as competition drives down prices for everyone.  Unless said die hard Nvidia fans are feeling a little hurt in the back side for having shelled out a mortgage payment to procure a 780 or Titan only to now be smacked in the face with a price point the card should have sold for in the first place.

What happen with AMD last month, some issue... I didn't read... and their cheaper price...

But I will never forgive NVIDIA what did us this year... I'm still not completely sure what will happen as me like NVIDIA customer. 
Many people have feeling about IT manufacturer and how they give us less than they can offer... Most of science look on that like that's not true but NVIDIA explain everything over night our 700e cards became not important price drop huge and they start to offer 25% better card + few nice new games for same price. Someone need to start to give awards for innovation, parsimony, greed like characteristic same as performance. And I would vote for NVIDIA.
