PC Gaming

GTX 1080 Ti strong here lol

I know it's not indicative of the industry as a whole, but the Steam hardware survey has Nvidia at 75%. So while they're still selling strong, as others have indicated, I'm not confident they're getting used for gaming.

AMD needs to fix their software.

I had an AMD GPU last year for a couple weeks, but their software barely works. The overlay didn't scale properly on a 4k screen and cut off half the info, and wouldn't even show up at all most of the time, 'ReLive' with instant replay enabled caused a performance hit with stuttering in high FPS games...

Maybe they have it now, but I also couldn't find a way to enable HDR on older games like Nvidia has.

„The Market” is not a good measure. Hell, its not even a measure at all. No consumer is able to pull any good info from this article.

Its the equivalent of „How much money has been spent of products by company xy”, completely disregarding if the products sold are even competing with each other, let alone if the production of one company is even trying to sell at that scale

Now regarding the article: they are not differentiating between enterprise and personal grade products. Of course Intel is non existent in Enterprise GPU sales, because they don't even sell fucking Enterprise GPUs. Same with amd.

This is like comparing a local steel working company with weckerle machines who mostly makes industry Make-up equipment (out of steel) and saying that Weckerle dominates the Market

Or like saying „Gamers Beware: Pre-built PCs are dominating the market”, then showing a study about „ Computing devices”, and showing that the 2 main sources are Enterprise buying bulk and NUCs, both of which have nothing to do with what the article is implying in the first place, since, and say this with me

• Enterprise devices are completely different from consumer devices, both in terms of price and in volume, and if compared directly (in the middle of an economic crisis) of course an Enterprise is going to spend way more money on one category.

TIL there's a lot of people who don't know what a dGPU is in here

Who the hell keeps buying nvidia? Stop it.

I think Nvidia has better marketing. I never really hear anything about AMD cards, where I would I instead hear about Nvidia.

IMO there’s zero reason to buy an nvidia gpu if there’s a similarly performing amd card because the price will just be better.

AMD seems to be doing fine, Nvidia just doing finer. If this was 10 years ago, it'd be a lot more concerning but now AMD has a healthy home and server CPU business and GPU server business and they're the standard for handheld PCs. Along with consoles, that'll keep FSR relevant and their server stuff will keep funding for UDNA. Samsung uses AMD GPUs for their Exynos chips and that sounds like it may make it's flagship return with the next Galaxy phones. They're not drowning

Intel cards are awesome in a homeserver for media transcoding. Super cheap, super capable, power saving compared to other cards with the features. And although Intel has become a shitty company, I'd really like to see more competition on the gpu market

I don’t get this.

Well, if this includes laptops, I get that. Just try to find a dGPU laptop with AMD or Arc these days.

…But in desktops, everyone seems to complain about Nvidia pricing, yet no one is touching Battlemage or the 9000 series? Why? For gaming specifically, they seem pretty great in their price brackets.

Maybe prebuilts are overshadowing that too?

That is concerning
