I really hope Steam can fix it's survey some day concerning AMD GPUs. No 9070XT, no 9060XT, despite both clearly being the main RDNA4 cards. But no, 9070 and 9070GRE it is for Steam. And from the previous Gen the 7900XT and 7600 are still missing, as is the 7600S that I have in my laptop...

And given AMD's Q3  financial results where they've shared that their Gaming revenue was up 181% year over year to $1.3 billions, it's clear that AMD is selling quite a few more GPU this gen than in previous ones.

Note that this doesn't mean that the market share needs to grow, as Nvidia may also be selling more cards than ever from, for example, 2000 and 3000 series users that saw no appeal in the 4000 series cards, outside the high end. Same goes for AMD users with 5000 and 6000 GPUs.

Considering that Xbox sales were crashing and PS5 sales dropping, AMD must have more than tripled. If not even quadrupled its GPU sales YoY to get to that result. That much of a growth doesn't come without any increase in market share, though I only expect 1-3% gain from this
