And now the strange results:

DX8 share still growing, now over 9% of the Steam systems aren't allocated correctly:

Last but not least: a new Nvidia GPU showed up in the Steam hardware survey:

This seems to one of the Geforce Now systems, with about RTX 2060 performance.

Geforce Now has some lower performing rigs for older games not using raytracing or DLSS and some systems with higher performance (the former RTX 3080 subscription and the current RTX 4080 subscription)... but the T10-8 is probably still the majority of systems for their cloud gaming service.

Ah, I was wondering what that T10-8 was supposed to be; thanks for the explanation!

As for the DX8 cards, I'm sure the 7900XTX falls under them because it doesn't show up under DX12/Vulcan cards.  Now what else is hiding in there is pretty much a riddle for the ages by now.
