Looks pretty even to me in terms of RMA. But remember, don't buy Power Color Radeon cards, or Palit Nvidia cards π

Why is some of the most important brands left out: Asus (!!!), EVGA, Galax, Inno3D etc.

Hold on, I've got Palit Gaming Pro OC since day 1 with zero issue so far.
This was back then the cheapest Ti with good factory OC.
Not to mention I had installed an NZXT G12 with cheap Corsair AIO on it after a few days of testing.So far so good π
I'm not even sure I should sell it when Ampere is out until it is good enough for 1440p@60

2000 series cards should be good for 1440p@60 for long time
I wonder if the higher return rate for AMD is also for driver issues, i bet initially many people tired of black screen issues did an rma?

They don't really say why the cards were returned ... I can easily see the 2060 / 2070 / 2080s being returned because the super versions came out.

Possible people are returning Radeon cards cause of driver issues?

Maybe I'm an idiot but only the absolute numbers differ marginally.
The relation of total purchased by brand in contrast to returned by brand are almost double for AMD, unless I'm missing something.
I don't think it's particularly noteworthy overall (yet) but shows an indication of something potentially worrisome should it be allowed to fester.
EDIT: I am an idiot. It's not double but 50% higher π

Funny man.
By slightly you mean a LOT.
Just go and read the forums, read /AMD reddit section. They are packed full of people having issues (and by issues I mean, big issues, like flickering, crashing, freezing, bluescreen, blackscreen, greenscreen, crapscreen in a lot of situations, even when browsing the web). The statistic that you show here is just a percentage of what people are not willing to put up with a crappy product. Seems like a lot of people are willing to eat AMD's turds for lower prices, because the issues were pretty common in the beginning of rx5000 series life but people went and cried over the forums instead of RMA'ing the boards.

Where are the ones who said "UMAGASH NAVI IS UNSTABLY FOR EVRYUNE"
it's barely rma-d more than novideo, but since the AMD community grows bigger (look: reddit), sadly stupid people are coming too, with unstable XMP, 400W PSU and God knows what other problems.
Yes, navi HAD and HAS problems, not the average Joe won't really get bothered by them (I mean, does he have tripple monitor setup with HDMI and audio while 2 is 144Hz and third is 60? ugh)

You should have really checked the numbers yourself, WCCFTechs reported numbers are wrong in more than one place.
For example 1660 Ti's RMA rate isn't 0.01%, it's 1.2%. Lowest RMA in those Mindfactory numbers is RX 5500 XT at 0.9%
