| zarx said: Ok first off I would like to admit I made a mistake in my last post Nvidia's GPU sales is ~65m not 100m I had a lot of tabs open and I must have grabbed an incorrect number well making my calculations. I should have double checked my math sorry. The $115 is for their most expensive GPU obviously that makes up a tiny fraction of their total shipments I mean it retails for $1000+ FFS. As I pointed out their higher selling GPUs are around $65. I am not sure why you keep guessing their annual revenue either they do report that you know
Ok so we know that GPU sales for last year was $3.4b from shipment data we can extrapolate ~65 million units for Nvidia which works out to an average of ~$53 per GPU sold on average. Given they get around $65 for a GTX 770 aparently (probably less if you can buy them from a 3rd party for that price) that is not to bad at all. |
No worries, we all make mistakes. But finally. Something I can agree with and yet some here are arguing with me like I am crazy or something. I have never said what they are managing to accomplish on the dedicated GPU front is poor. Not once, all I have been saying is that its still a niche market. Its a growing niche market, but a niche market none the less.
And i kept guessing their annual revenue caus ei was just extrapolating from one quater since i didnt want to dig in to the number research. But my estimates were even much higher than what they actually make. Cause I gave them $8B lol.
I will add though, when nvidia says GPUs in that report. They are not just talking about desktop GPUs. They are talking about discrete GPUs in general which a majority of goes into laptops and all in one PCs. A MAJORITY. So if they ship 65M GPUs, well over 55M of those are going to specific vendors to put into laptops or all in ones.
