Boring month... Valve's statistic guys is still lazy.

RTX 3070, RX 6800, RX 6800 XT and RX 6900 XT are still not shown, but the group "DirectX 8 GPUs and below" (where they are probably hidden) is further growing:

No other interesting shifts this month.

AMD CPU share has risen 0.51 percentage points to 28.51%, VR has grown 0.08 percentage points to 2.21%.

I wonder why they end up under DX8 cards. Something off in the databases, unknown cards still getting a generic DX8 label before encoding after all these years, or what else could be the reason?

"DX8 and below", probably the field is empty or has an error code.

• if %DirectX = 12 -> group DX12
• if %DirectX = 11 -> group DX11
• if %DirectX = 10 -> group DX10
• if %DirectX = 9 -> group DX9
• else -> group DX8 and below
