NVIDIA’s Discrete GPU Market Share Swells To 94%, AMD Drops To 6% In Q2 2025, 27% Increase In AIB Shipments

Insane but I suppose it makes sense. While Radeon did really good with RDNA 4's launch, we seen from Nvidia's financial that so did Blackwell. And with little to no presence in laptops/prebuilts while handhelds likely counting as iGPUs and not dGPUs, it makes sense as even in the DIY space, Nvidia has the mindshare. Hell they even discounted Blackwell according to past articles which doesn't happen very often with Nvidia gpus. And with Supers rumoured to increase the vram of 5070 to 18GB as well as the 5080... GG

But least AMD still has Ryzen while Intel is still losing in both cpu and gpu space.

What annoys me the most is that it's happening now, when AMD has launched very competitive cards that are actually well priced (for a change) and with good drivers, while Nvidia has been the opposite, with one of their worst generation uplifts is many years, with the expected prices and awful drivers. And yet, people still go for them, to the point of making the 5070 with its 12GB of VRAM the best new card on the Steam hardware survey.

At this point, there's nothing AMD can do to beat Nvidia. It's like the market assumes Nvidia is the brand to go, just like Playstation has that image for consoles.
