Mhmm, make it during the day so it don't die since most people are zzz atm

I know but I'm gonna do it anyway. If necessary I'm gonna bump it to heavens.

Incidentally I recently had a talk with a certain site admin about this situation and to my surprise he actually proclaimed his love for Hot Topics killing threads within minutes. I responded with some more reasons why Hot Topic is cancer but I haven't heard back again.

It's Steam Stats Time again!

And thanks to my find above I could add some data for GPUs with a percent share below 0.16 (Titans, Furies, RX 460, RX 470...), which are put into "Other" in Valve's "All Video Cards" list.

The new "Direct X11 Systems" list leaves out all DX10-GPUs (and older) and all Windows versions older than Vista, but the percent shares keep almost the same as in the "All Video Cards" list:

That data is good enough to show the trend of GPUs below the 0.16%-threshhold, since even the differences for the most popular GPUs are 0.01% or lower. So we can see new GPUs earlier and can keep track of older GPUs which fell under 0.16% and expensive flagships which never overcome that threshold.

According to SteamSpy's estimates the growth of Steam accounts has slowed down last month to less than 1 million. But the Steam growth in the month before with over 5 million seemed too high (normally it is 3 - 4 million per month), so they probably just corrected that.

Windows 10 adoption also slowed down according to the Steam data... all 64-bit versions gained a bit from the Windows-XP decline and the decline of other 32-bit versions.

I may have to buy a new secondary display soon. The stutters in games when watching videos on the secondary monitor definitely come from the 2 display setup and most likely the disparity of attributes on both. Main gaming display is 1440p 144Hz G-sync and the other some office Dell monitor at 1440p60.

Or is there anything I can do to decouple the monitors so that the secondary won't affect the main display?

edit: So I tried plugging the secondary monitor into my 750ti beside the 1070. That made it much much worse. I sadly don't know about how GPUs, displays and OS work together so I don't know how to fix it. I can only hope that once I only have 2 identical monitors together it will be better.

edit2: WTF now that I built it back to what it was the issue has gone away. I swear everytime I boot this PC it's a dice roll if the driver will work or not.

Thanks for the new data, Conina, and that's a very useful info you've found.

The GTX 1060 doubling the numbers of the 480 is very worrying, and it shows quite clear that AMD didn't handle the production/distribution of the cards as well as they should.

Also, it saddens me that there's more people with Titans (whichever one minus the Z) than people with 460 or 470. Combined. At least the trend has changed and there's now more people with 1070 than with 1080, which would worry me a little bit.

@vivster: I haven't dealt with multi monitor configurations, only a couple of times to watch E3 conferences on one display and posting on the site with the other (I only did it a couple of years as it's a nightmare). Maybe Pemalite will be able to help you as he's more used to multi monitor setups, albeit with AMD cards.

I'm getting another 24 inch monitor FHD 144Hz(overclockable to 180Hz) in 4 weeks, yes, it's Acer Predator monitor.

Will that be the 2nd or the 3rd one?

It will be the 2nd. Two monitor is enough.

The new one which is overclockable to 180Hz will be main display & the old one will be secondary display.

Ok.

I hope you don't have the same problems as vivster.

I won't.
