That 10% number is actually wrong. Latest Steam Hardware survey has 18.03% for GA104 + AD104 GPUs and better. Even if we don't count the 3060 Ti (only a few % slower than the 3070, same RAM, same chip), it's still 15% It's also no secret that RDNA2 + RDNA3 aren't tracked correctly in the Steam survey. Together with the RTX 2080 Ti and 4060 Ti (which are both a bit faster than a RTX 3070) the share of powerful GPUs is well over 20%. |
It's academic anyway.
GPUs had an unsustainable boom the from about 2017-2021 especially because of people being locked inside their homes due to a once-in-100 years global pandemic and crypto miners buying up every new GPU and then reselling them to people for like half the price once the crypto mining/NFT market went kaput.
What we're seeing in the last 12 months is more indicative of what the GPU market normally is ... it has collapsed from its peak numbers. People have stopped buying. Luckily for Nvidia they have the AI boom to fall back on.
