Gtx 1060 getting the lead in jun 2017 and only being surpassed in aug 2022 (5 whole years and 2 generations later) just proves how stagnant the "budget" market has become.
@@tobeymaguire647 7900 GRE is probably what I'd pick if I had the choice now. I bought the 7800 XT when it launched and regret not waiting a little while longer, but nobody can see the future.
The mistake for them was charging “too little” for the generation uplift of the 10 series in terms of power and efficiency. Nvidia learned from the pandemic, that people are stupid enough to pay exorbitant prices for even their lower end cards.
It was back then when AMD was a serious competition in the GPU market share. After that moment AMD started going down especially when the hype over ray tracing became a thing and the crypto boom also kicked in so Nvidia had no reason to price their GPUs as good as the 10 series.
Maybe AMD not competing with Nvidia for the super GPU in 2025 is a good thing.... I mean this survey clearly shows a massive market for budget and entry level GPUs. Nvidia setting the price of new GPUs at $600+ has left one big gap for AMD to fill. I really hope it works out
@@Anubis1993KZintel has been in quite the shithole for the last couple months because of the instability issues (not sure if theyve been resolved yet) and amd has more of a good reputation for gaming, especially now that a ton of tech youtubers are starting to talk about the price to performance on amd gpus, im sure amd can dominate this market relatively easily
Haha, that was me for the longest time, didn't need much to run TTD and OpenRCT, wasn't much point upgrading until civ 5 and cities skylines came along.
The stats include installs, not necessarily people playing. Every laptop or work PC or garbage used to just open Steam and look at Friends or something counts to these values. In the current day probably only 2/3 of the data points are even representative, maybe less.

It is a 720p Low settings graphics processor. You can't play any AAA title at 1080p whatsoever. Unless you lock the game to 10 or 15 fps.*
When all TH-camrs were talking about 4090 all gamers were playing on xx60 cards... especially 3060.... and in the end fastest GPU in top 20 was 4070 Ti with 1.25%... Anyway... I love the time when 8800 was on top... it was one on the best era of gaming (at least in my opinion)
it's because nobody needs those cards. those cards are total overkill and not worth the money. Plus they swallow more power / watts than the rest of the house combined

Bro. I still have, use and love my 6 year old 1060 6GB. 💀 She may be old (late 2018) but once I finally upgrade I'm going to put my baby in a display case close to me so I never abandon her like how she never abandoned me.
Thats a nice idea, i might steal that idea :D Still running a Gainward 1060 Golden Phoenix, not only did it serve me for so many years, the Gainward also looks sick.
i went from a gtx470 , gtx980, rtx2080. i'm wondering if it might be worth it to get some one to mod my 2080 from 8gigs to 16 gigs memory if the price is right, since there are more people out there on TH-cam that can do that sort of thing
same my 1060 is 8 years old never bothered to upgrade but imma go all out and get the 5090 next year which will hopefully get me through the next decade
@@Volkze But the crypto mining period made the GPu prices skyrocket. This cause people to hold on their old GPUs for longer and buy used ones, hence why the GTX 1060 retained its dominance for far longer than it would have been expected.
Dominance in SALES. But in nothing else. RX580 was faster back then by 5% and the AMD card supported Vulkan and DX12, which the 1060 did not. The AMD card also cost less. So the fact that 800% more people bought the 1060 just shows Nvidia how STUPID PC gamers are, which is why they continually increase their prices and lower their generational gains. Doesn't matter, people will buy their media centre 4060 for $400 regardless. (WHICH THEY DID!). Incidentally, the RX580 beats the 1060 today by over 100% in many titles. Like ... DOUBLE the framerate. Insane.
Yes, people should stop going for "their team" and just buy the card that is best for them, no matter if it is green, red or blue. You will also still find people that think you can not buy a AMD card, because the drivers are bad and it runs to hot. They still live in 2014.
You are correct. AMD have been getting their ass kicked in the GPU market for way too long. Nvidia can charge whatever they want. Which isn't good for PC gaming. Less new people getting into PC gaming because of how expensive it is. Plus less people upgrading, they will mostly go over to console instead. I used Nvidia since the 560ti days, then I got a 7900 XT when it came out. We need AMD, we need competition. If not, then PC will go back to only a small few that can actually afford it. Which will also mean less profit for steam.
We've seen for 2 generations now that people will buy Nvidia even it you get less card for the same price. 90% of Nvidia users don't use raytracing, yet it's the only reason to spend the extra few hundred £ for the same fps.
@@DuppyBoii187 i mean 4080 super vs 7900xtx is a pretty close battle, one has more vram and one has more shader / tensor cores or something and were roughly around the same price depending upon location.
I did notice that since around 2022 we started to see a few spicier budget cards in the top spots. (3070, and 3060ti) Before that the only on notable cards were the 1070, 1070ti, 1080, and 1080ti. (I wonder if the 'other' Radeon cards were the Vega 56, and Vega 64?)
This is a steam issue not a GPU manufacturer issue. VulkanInfo and DXdiag have no issues in identifying the cards which means that the information is there and it is accessible. You cannot program for either Direct3d or Vulkan without Identifying the GPU first.
It still kinda pisses me off Nvidia has such a dominance in the market. Like sure their cards are good. This is an undeniable fact. But as a business, Nvidia is just as rancid if not more so than Apple. At least AMD tries to not fuck over it's own users every generation.
yep, im trying out the AMD cards (it comes tomorrow) for a bit with the 7700xt before the 5k series comes out. Who knows i might like it enough to stay with AMD (replacing a 2070 Super)
@@NoxNtella I hope you have a good time! I personally love my 7900xtx despite a few hiccups with Helldiver 2 and Space Marine 2, both of which had work arounds and now currently work just fine. The only major issue I can say I had was with the temperatures. I'm not sure if this is an xtx exclusive issue but I found that the factory applied paste was pushed out to the edges of the die. Personally I chose to use PTM7950 and I haven't had an issue since. Aside from that I can say that the performance is fantastic and the Adrenalin software is tough to beat.
@@NoxNtellaI much prefer AMD's adrenalin software than geforce . It's so much more user friendly. Can literally just type in the search the particular setting and bam. Also just better features in general imo. Anti-lag, enhanced sync, VSR(super resolution) which is better than Nvidia's (better performance gains) If you ever want to use scaling in a game. Don't use dynamic scaling or any of that nonsense. Use the in-house VSR from AMD. Example. 1440p monitor but just barely off 60fps (or whatever desired fps) in a demanding game? Activate VSR, target 1440p, set in game to 1080p. You will get better performance than using any other upscaling or rendering bs.
Also you barely lose any visual fidelity. I could barely tell the difference between native and VSR. There is a slight one but you only notice if your standing still and REALLY looking.
Pretty sure this chart includes the laptop and desktop gpu's as one, if so it makes sense why the 4060 is exploding in popularity as the 4060 laptop is actually amazing for it's price unlike the desktop model, I would know since I have 4060 laptop lol.
@@VoornePuttenBenchmarks The mobile 4060 is good compared to other laptop GPUs like the 4070 mobile which offers very little performance gains for a lot more money, but price to performance wise it is on par with the desktop 4060 (it is just that there are better desktop options).
I got it in new PC and it was 4gen jump for me. I actually know 0 people who change their xx60 card to nextgen 60 card at all, and i think it all dudes building new PCs after 6-8 years of using 1050/1060

@@Balnazzardi the 970 was a steal in 2014, cheaper and much more powerful than a PS4 which was only a year old. I finally upgraded to a 4070 last year.
@@ROCKSTAR3291 ye I was really on edge of upgrading to 4070S this year, already was thinking of 4060Ti last yeae but then I thought perhaps I just wait till next year until Nvidia has revealed price and performance of 5000 series. I mean most likely RTX 4070 Super would last in my use as long as 970 did but should RTX 5070 be 16GB Vram GPU, it would be even more "future proof", especially if I would go from 1080p monitor to 1440p I dont play newest/most system heavy games, so I told myself "hold your horses, you can wait till 2025 and then make the decision" 😂
I literally just swapped mine out for a 2060 12GB. It was an okay card but at the time I could have gotten a 1060 or a 1070 even and I wish I had because I'd probably still be rocking either one of those. The 4GB VRAM just isn't cutting it any more.
@@adlibconstitution1609 that is absolutly true and thats why they will continue to do same shit to customers like they did this generation and make overpriced flagship card and castrate the rest and sell them for some funny $/fps ratio while paying game publishers to focus on DLS while doing basicly no optimalization to their games :)
@@adlibconstitution1609 That is not true, there is not a single "laptop" named gpu in charts, because nvidia's mobile gpus is reported as same as desktop. For example, RTX 4050 and RTX 4050 mobile is same AD107, only with different frequencies. P.S. Not fanboy of anything, i have mainly intel igpu's and my last used dedicated GPU was GeForce4 Ti 4200 in pre-steam times :)
It's cool how it's generally centers around the 60-class cards with both higher and lower end cards tapering off around it. The 970 is an exception because I remember those selling for less than a 1060 for similar performance at the start of the 10-series.
970 and 750ti cards dominated that era. I still remember the 750ti being the best budget GPU coupled with a fx 6300 you'd have a $600 build that would play almost anything. Sad that the minimum to pay now is over a $1000 and you still don't get "good" performance on any new game.
@@sampic_ Indeed, modern AAA games are horribly optimized and they now use things like DLSS as a crutch to make them playable (but only on the latest cards of course).
Most people consider mid range, they want to invest not too much or too little, not to think too much on what to choose What is an average reasonable stuff they can get So entry and high end have their own customers
That will never happen again. They make sure there are no cheap last gen GPUs left when they launch a new series. Meanwhile, AMD kept the RX6600 in production for 3 years. I think this is why they put 16GB on the 7600XT - otherwise there would be no reason to buy a current gen budget AMD GPU.
@@Lurch-Bot Yeah, and for many people who thought extra VRAM without enough power is useless, the 16GB's unlock room for AMD Frame Generation, 8GB cards, can't do that without VRAM Spillover or crash, 10 is also risky/1080p 12GB is fine for 1080p+FG Scale that up

@@BladeCrewso the reason i made this comment, is the GPU in the 1060s are different, performance is massively different between the 3GB and 6GB, because again different GPU and not the same card with only different VRAM. It was designed to make people spend more to think they are getting the performance of the 1060 when buying the 3GB model.
I was riveted by the highs and lows of the Radeon (Other). Struggling to stay afloat over the years, the mysterious collective of GPUs working together to blemish the sea of green kept me rooting for them, despite knowing the outcome. Bless their souls! Don't drown yet!
Im still rocking with it to this very day 😂 but granted I dont play the latest games aside from few exceptions anymore and when I do they arent the most demanding of games, like Jagged Alliance 3 for example. But ye I remember how many ppl ridiculed it for being "just 3.5GB GPU and not true 4GB"....well as we all know it offered excellent value for your money and the 3.5GB wasnt really that big of issue. Now the question for me is whether I upgrade to 12GB VRAM GPU or 16GB VRAM GPU next year. I guess I wait and see what the specs and prices are for low and mid tier RTX 5000 GPUs will be. I know its either 4070S or 5070 for me
The 8800 ranged from the 8800 GS that was priced at $170 to the 8800 Ultra priced at $650. Back then NVIDIA grouped all the mid range and high end GPUs under a single name. The modern equivalent would be if NVIDIA named all the GPUs from the 4070 and all above GPU tiers to 4080 😅
There has been a pre-Ryzen period during which Intel has bribed laptop and prebuilt manufacturers to not use AMD CPUs, hence the reason Intel has dominated AMD in terms of integrated graphics for quite a while.

@@sanji663 Never caused any issues for me, atleast the kind of that would have made me curse about that "issue"...in my honest opinion the whole "its only 3.5GB GPU" was lot of noice for nothing. Then again I never really played really system heavy games with it to begin with, so it suited my needs all these years just fine. Anyhow I hope Nnvidia has enough sense to give 5070 better price-performance value than that, but if not then 4070S it is for me
I will add to this thread that dual Gou laptops were a trend. I myself had one that switched between nVidia GPU and Intel hd graphics depending on settings (like games using the nVidia one but it being turned off for normal work)
I had it for 6 years but I needed to upgrade to play games at 1440p. I don't blame you for not upgrading. The 7900 XT cost me $1600 AUD. The days of affordable PC gaming is gone, it's just not worth the price these companies are asking.
It feels like yesterday and I'm baffled by the fact that 770 was used so little. I swear to god my ASUS 770 lasted an eternity with satisfactory performance before making way to mighty 1080ti. Best buy ever.
My experience was the same! Great cards. I got the 4GB 770 in June 2013 brand new. I used it until December 2018, when I got the 1080Ti. In July, I just gave 1080Ti to my wife and upgraded to a new RTX 4080 Super by trading some GPUs to a guy on FB marketplace. Other than concerns around 16GB being good long term, I don't regret any of these transactions.
@@bjyoungblood We bought same cards in almost same time frames. I too bought gtx770 in 2023 and 1080ti in 2018. Except I went for a RX 7900XT lol. No regrets here either.

Never mind high or ultra, or hairworks. The gpu was basically worthless after just 1 year. Dark souls 3 released, same shit. Playing with mix of low and medium settings, yikes. Idk how much it costed cuz it was a gift, but prob 300-400.
@ i applaud you, honestly kepler is my favorite GPU architecture from nvidia I used to own both a 760 and 750 ti And the 780 has been my dream card forever, just haven’t been able to get my hands on one.
Had a water cooled 750 ti with a moded bios and it was the most dog turd Palit oem style board and it worked for more than 7 years until i decided to upgrade
I got one off a buddy that "bricked" it and just reflashed the stock bios myself. Basically free, $100. That's about how much i paid for my RX570 (8gb). I have a 6700xt in my rig now but it genuinely isn't that big of a difference in raw raster performance. When you start introducing RT or just lots of shader effects, etc. You can definitely tell the difference though.
And what did we all learn? No 90 series card from NVIDIA in sight and the only 80 series on the board was the 3080 at a whopping 1.84% market share (7:27). Judging by the amount of hype the new generations get on TH-cam you'd think everyone would be rushing to buy them, just like with aaaaaaall the leaks going around with the 5090!
People get hyped. But that doesn't mean that everyone prioritizes $1,200 or more to just a video card. Maybe most people like to travel, smoke, drink, party, finance new vehicles, etc.
Only guy I knew using 3090 only does flight sim, most people gaming setup are middle-low specs, people aren't willy-nilly buy new GPU just because its new, most of us are broke AF.

I’ve spotted one thing… current gen mid range GPU is using between 200 and 300 wats when 10-15 years ago that amount of wats was for top range GPUs… Another thing, old mid range GPUs like 760-1060 were much more powerful in compare to top range than todays GPUs who’s more like old low end… stagnation and power consumption nowadays are insane.
200 and 300? There is no midrange GPU that consumes 300 watts of power, unless you count rtx4070ti as mid range and even then that one only consumes 285watt, if anything RTX40 midrange like 4060 and 4060ti are very good with power effeciency
@@LampSteak 4060 series (Ti included) looks like it should be called 4050 / 4050 Ti.

My RX 7800 XT should consume 263W but it's overclocked version and it's around 280-290W. RTX 4070 series (in my opinion should be called 4060) is very efficient but it's from 200W and above and overclocked 4070 Ti Super can easily go above 285W co still they are in Wat range (200-300). Those are current mid range cards. They are 2-3 slots constructions, 10-15 years ago they easily could be in size and power consumption of flagship constructions. ps.

I only just switched my 1060 3gb for a rx 7800xt, used it since like 2019 or so. You don't need to spend over 200 to play comfortably right now, I could have kept using it for at least 2 years I think.

bro r u sure? im a ps5 player looking to get into building a pc. and even the ps5 with 12 gb of ram struggles certain games. Like water in call of duty kills the frames. and so does anything in black myth wukong where a ton of particles appear. it would seem as 12 gb of ram is standard. especially since current consoles are made with 12 gb of ram.
@@GrindtimeZay I don't know anything about ps5 but I'm assuming it's because it's always trying to max quality so those things will make it struggle. For budget build you are looking at mid settings with 40-80 fps, depending on game and AAA are likely going to be low settings. 8gb will be plenty because some settings use more ram than others, this is for 1080p btw. If you want better graphics than ps5 you likely have to go with $400+ card with 12gb
I still use it to play most game at 30-60 fps with low to medium graphic right now. Just OC it to 1823MHZ and undervolt a lil bit and see the magical happen
Admit it It's a dead card. I have a 1050 ti since 2018 too. It can't play Starfield, Bodycam, Hogwarts Legacy. I will buy new system probably Rtx 4060 or 4070 super or 7800 xt 7900 gre I'm not sure for now but I'm sure I will buy new gaming computer
I am shocked that the 1060 outlasted the 1070 and 1080 Ti's. They were the best bang for buck performance cards Nvidia ever made and are still both very capable GPU's for 1080p budget builds, They are literally dirt cheap. What was an even bigger shock was the complete lack of RX 5000 and 6000 series GPU's. These are some of the most recommended cards on almost every forum imaginable for budget 1080/1440 builds. Sometimes you have to wonder how Steam is collecting this data and how accurate it is.

While valve and their proton and gamescope is investing lots of money to change that, for the time being linux is very behind.

@@pranayarana1958 you'd of been satisfied no matter what you brought because you wouldnt have known better, i was using a 980ti back then with 6GB of VRAM and that was good until it started to hit the VRAM cap so i can only imagine how much worse it would have been with gimped vram, but thats the point with a card in mid range and especially so with that card, you'll want to upgrade faster, anything in the 1000 series would have seemed like a big upgrade.
the GTX 1060 6GB was genuinely good, it's not just because of mining. i don't use mine anymore but i gave it away and its still able to play badly optimized games like Hogwarts Legacy on a 1050p monitor (and 1080p for any other game), it was just that good. the Pascal entire generation was the biggest jump of price/performances that ever existed (i'm talking about the entire gen, not just one GPU like the 4090 is). since then the market is stagnant, NVIDIA doesn't give enough VRAM, their "budget" GPU's just recently went back to the normal price (accounting for inflation) but everything from a 70 to a 80 is severely overinflated, and the 90 is now an AI GPU that's not even meant for gamers anymore. oh and AMD still doesn't exist because instead of selling cheaper GPU's, they went the greedy way like NVIDIA by following their prices very closely but unlike them AMD doesn't have good tech behind their GPU's and now they announced they're stopping the high budget GPU's.

I guess after that the way to tell whether an upgrade is in order is to see if theres anything faster than what you have in the top 3 or 4 spaces. If there is, it's time for an upgrade!
note that prior to 2010 ... the top card for the longest time was nivida's high end card... around 2010 -2012 this started change when nivida really started jacking their prices regularly every generation.
It was 599 USD for the 8800 GTX (2006). It was 499 USD for the GTX 285 (2009) and a GTX 480 (2010) and a GTX 680 (2012). A GTX 980 (2014) went for 549 USD and a GTX 1080 (2016) went for 599 USD. So, an Artx 3080 went for 699 USD in 2020. That is a great price. So, the prices stayed super low and constant for MANY ages. The only time prices sky-rocketed was the 4000 series. When performance jumps were finally above 25%-36% rasterization.
@@Twitch_Moderator the only thing consistant with their prices was that their top end got 50 to 100 bucks more expensive every other generation , inflation didn't move that fast. i lived it dude i saw the prices creep sure nivida had a spike witht eh 4000's series but they were consistantly raising prices every other generation of card the top tier card of 2000 (the geforce 2 ultra) went for 270-320 bucks (about 550-650 today) got to keep in mind the 1080 came out before the inflation boom of bidenomics . and even at 599 it was well above what inflation dicated it should have been in 2017... and the titan .... that thing launched at $999 meaning in 2017 the most top tier card was already 3x more expensive than 2000's top tier card. the 1080 had nivida actually followed inflation should have been around 350-400 bucks while the titan should have been around 600-650 . so stop the bull shit . i'm not bashing nvidia hell i got a 4080 super myself . but you can't defend their pricing or make up stories about some kind of consistant pricing . the only thing they have been consistant with is steadily raising prices above what inflation would call for. the 4000 series pricing was a whole nother level of "f*ck you" to the consumer though that i xo agree with you on.
I had Radeon HD 5770 as well, the only AMD GPU I ever had actually. Before that I had PC with Geforce 3 Ti 200 and afterwards GTX 970...as you can tell, I dont upgrade my PC that often 🤣 next one is propably gonna be RTX 4070 Super or 5070.
I am so lucky to have hd5850. I knew recently about it from tech power up. Hd4870 1g was nice and hd5850 cypress must be a goat. Double cores double performance.
3:19, my beloved GTX 970 appears! Still rocking with it even after a decade 🤣 Next year gonna finally have to upgrade though, whether its to RTX 4070S or upcoming 5070, I dont yet know. But GTX 970 has served me so well these past 10 years, the last more recent game I played with it was Jagged Alliance 3, released last year. Ofc its starting to show its age, but still managed to play the less demanding games even 10 years later 😄
I love the halo song ending on a theme of hope right as AMD and Intel claw back about 2% market share each after nearly being completely wiped off the chart
Well if they cant compete with tech/high end GPUs, their best chance is to compete with price/amount of VRAM. With latest raytracing and DLSS 3 tech its no wonder Nvidia is dominating the charts
All those entry level people at the top are going to be real disappointed as games continue to be increasingly more demanding the way they have been lately.
Were you kicking yourself for not getting the 640MB? I know I kind of was when I got the 256MB 8800GT for ~$230 in 2007. It did respectably but should have spent the extra $50 for the 512MB, lol.

There just aren't many people that would rather miss out on mainstream features that Nvidia cards offer just to save a couple of bucks. It almost makes NO sense to buy an AMD/ATi card unless the hate in your heart consumes you and you despise Nvidia. Ie: gaming performance of a 7900XTX vs a 4080 SUPER. It is $50 cheaper to get a 4080S, and it is 17% more powerful in gaming than the 7900XTX. Yet, some people still hang on for dear life to the AMD card just in spite of Nvidia.
@@Twitch_Moderator Honestly what you have written here is absolute lie. Atleast in my country 7900XTX is at least 30% cheaper than 4080 super - 1000€ vs 1300€ and it's actually a little bit faster than 4080 super, I really don't know what leads people like you to lie like that, in the long run lies like this hurts ALL customers, since as we know, many people will straight up believe everything they read. Oh and in Raytracing it IS slower than 4080 super, for sure, however it's still at a 4070 Ti level, which isn't too bad. Also what mainstream feautures are you talking about? FSR and XEss is very good, FG2 is also very good. Only one thing thats missing is CUDA, but thats hardly a mainstream technology for gamers.
I’m actually surprised that Nvidia has that much more of a market share. Amd is really good. Hopefully with this next launch, they get a bit more attention. Their CPUs are doing really well though.
I bought the GTX970 in 2015. Still works fine in the spare bedroom in the system I leave in there for when friends stay 9 years later. I used it actively playing just about everything until the RTX 3060 12GB came out in 2022 which is my current board. So I guess I made the right choices :)

@@tobeymaguire647Amd has less factories all over the world resulting in higher tax in more country/market, making it lose its strongest point, price. And honestly people won't care if they lose 5fps when they upgrade from a 2060 or 1060 to 4060 or even 4070 instead of an rx7800xt. It is just so ideal with their lower power consumption, while being of the same price if not cheaper than amd outside of the US.
Getting an amd cpu is better right now, if you have a goal in mind for your specific build, amd gpu can fill that gap. But the majority of pc are built for games and light work, how many people do you think need 24gb of vram 😅. So sure, they are better in some cases, always better in raw power, but just more hassle for what an average person needs that they can find in nvidia.

Things like cell phones, TVs, computers, etc, you are always upgrading or replacing. So, why complain? Cell phones cost $1,000+ now. You either pay off 75% of thar price over a 2-year contract, or you pay it all up front. So, why complain about paying $1,200 every 2-3 years for a graphics card? (which will being you MANY MORE hours of fun).
This is actually really insane. My lens into what cards were so popular did not reflect AT ALL what was actually being used. The 1080ti was hardly on the board. I thought that card would STILL be somewhere on the chart even today, but it was practically irrelevant compared to the renown it's gotten over the years. This chart was dominated by budget cards. Guess I can't be surprised
Gtx 1060 getting the lead in jun 2017 and only being surpassed in aug 2022 (5 whole years and 2 generations later) just proves how stagnant the "budget" market has become.

Pascal was so damn fast everyone overlooked the fact that NVIDIA started to gimp the VRAM that generation.
They got profit and they got tons of sales. i would not call that a mistake
The mistake for them was charging “too little” for the generation uplift of the 10 series in terms of power and efficiency.
Nvidia learned from the pandemic, that people are stupid enough to pay exorbitant prices for even their lower end cards.
It was back then when AMD was a serious competition in the GPU market share. After that moment AMD started going down especially when the hype over ray tracing became a thing and the crypto boom also kicked in so Nvidia had no reason to price their GPUs as good as the 10 series.
Maybe AMD not competing with Nvidia for the super GPU in 2025 is a good thing.... I mean this survey clearly shows a massive market for budget and entry level GPUs. Nvidia setting the price of new GPUs at $600+ has left one big gap for AMD to fill. I really hope it works out
The only problem is that Intel is aiming for the same price category, so it won't be easy either.

cuz of mining
@@KeizashiAcidRain This is from the steam hardware survey so its not because of mining.
@@Volkze But the crypto mining period made the GPu prices skyrocket. This cause people to hold on their old GPUs for longer and buy used ones, hence why the GTX 1060 retained its dominance for far longer than it would have been expected.
Dominance in SALES. But in nothing else. RX580 was faster back then by 5% and the AMD card supported Vulkan and DX12, which the 1060 did not. The AMD card also cost less.
So the fact that 800% more people bought the 1060 just shows Nvidia how STUPID PC gamers are, which is why they continually increase their prices and lower their generational gains. Doesn't matter, people will buy their media centre 4060 for $400 regardless. (WHICH THEY DID!).
Incidentally, the RX580 beats the 1060 today by over 100% in many titles. Like ... DOUBLE the framerate. Insane.
@@TheVanillatech The RX 580 is a 185W card. The 1060 is a 120W card.
I'm afraid the lack of competition is the reason why the market is so crappy from the customer perspective right now.
Yes, people should stop going for "their team" and just buy the card that is best for them, no matter if it is green, red or blue. You will also still find people that think you can not buy a AMD card, because the drivers are bad and it runs to hot. They still live in 2014.
You are correct. AMD have been getting their ass kicked in the GPU market for way too long. Nvidia can charge whatever they want. Which isn't good for PC gaming. Less new people getting into PC gaming because of how expensive it is. Plus less people upgrading, they will mostly go over to console instead. I used Nvidia since the 560ti days, then I got a 7900 XT when it came out. We need AMD, we need competition. If not, then PC will go back to only a small few that can actually afford it. Which will also mean less profit for steam.
@@addygreen8919 amd drivers are still trash sometimes but they have good cards

Activate VSR, target 1440p, set in game to 1080p.
You will get better performance than using any other upscaling or rendering bs.
Also you barely lose any visual fidelity. I could barely tell the difference between native and VSR. There is a slight one but you only notice if your standing still and REALLY looking.

It was designed to make people spend more to think they are getting the performance of the 1060 when buying the 3GB model.
Yeah the 3060 was basically a 2060.
I was riveted by the highs and lows of the Radeon (Other). Struggling to stay afloat over the years, the mysterious collective of GPUs working together to blemish the sea of green kept me rooting for them, despite knowing the outcome. Bless their souls! Don't drown yet!
Gtx 970 lasted me 8 years for just 350€ it was crazy
Im still rocking with it to this very day 😂 but granted I dont play the latest games aside from few exceptions anymore and when I do they arent the most demanding of games, like Jagged Alliance 3 for example. But ye I remember how many ppl ridiculed it for being "just 3.5GB GPU and not true 4GB"....well as we all know it offered excellent value for your money and the 3.5GB wasnt really that big of issue. Now the question for me is whether I upgrade to 12GB VRAM GPU or 16GB VRAM GPU next year. I guess I wait and see what the specs and prices are for low and mid tier RTX 5000 GPUs will be. I know its either 4070S or 5070 for me
Everyone had the gtx 8800 and it was the flagship card. Imagine everyone being able to buy a 4080 now
That's because the 8800 had like 10 variants at different prices
And they didn't use "GTX" they used GT, GTS after the number
The 8800 ranged from the 8800 GS that was priced at $170 to the 8800 Ultra priced at $650. Back then NVIDIA grouped all the mid range and high end GPUs under a single name. The modern equivalent would be if NVIDIA named all the GPUs from the 4070 and all above GPU tiers to 4080 😅
The majority of that 8800 spec has to be the 8800gt. It was the gtx 1060 of its day.
Nice video dude. The music was on point
Intel HD graphics really surprised me, it even dominate longer than AMD.
There has been a pre-Ryzen period during which Intel has bribed laptop and prebuilt manufacturers to not use AMD CPUs, hence the reason Intel has dominated AMD in terms of integrated graphics for quite a while.

I had it for 6 years but I needed to upgrade to play games at 1440p. I don't blame you for not upgrading. The 7900 XT cost me $1600 AUD. The days of affordable PC gaming is gone, it's just not worth the price these companies are asking.
It feels like yesterday and I'm baffled by the fact that 770 was used so little. I swear to god my ASUS 770 lasted an eternity with satisfactory performance before making way to mighty 1080ti. Best buy ever.
My experience was the same! Great cards. I got the 4GB 770 in June 2013 brand new. I used it until December 2018, when I got the 1080Ti.

I have a 6700xt in my rig now but it genuinely isn't that big of a difference in raw raster performance.
When you start introducing RT or just lots of shader effects, etc. You can definitely tell the difference though.

Judging by the amount of hype the new generations get on TH-cam you'd think everyone would be rushing to buy them, just like with aaaaaaall the leaks going around with the 5090!

The difference was my HD 7950 was a _lot_ less expensive...
I upgraded the 2080 to a 7800XT for half the price of a 4070, and I'm not looking back. It uses as much power as the 2080, it's cool, it gave me 50% extra performance and it doesn't require it's own nuclear reactor to run. Although I'd have gone for the 7900GRE if 7800XT wasn't such a steal.
I’ve spotted one thing… current gen mid range GPU is using between 200 and 300 wats when 10-15 years ago that amount of wats was for top range GPUs…
Another thing, old mid range GPUs like 760-1060 were much more powerful in compare to top range than todays GPUs who’s more like old low end… stagnation and power consumption nowadays are insane.
200 and 300? There is no midrange GPU that consumes 300 watts of power, unless you count rtx4070ti as mid range and even then that one only consumes 285watt, if anything RTX40 midrange like 4060 and 4060ti are very good with power effeciency
@@LampSteak 4060 series (Ti included) looks like it should be called 4050 / 4050 Ti. About 200-300W for current mid range, I was talking around that, not specific like for example 299W is midrange, 300W is flagship, 301W is titan class... My RX 7800 XT should consume 263W but it's overclocked version and it's around 280-290W. RTX 4070 series (in my opinion should be called 4060) is very efficient but it's from 200W and above and overclocked 4070 Ti Super can easily go above 285W co still they are in Wat range (200-300).
Those are current mid range cards. They are 2-3 slots constructions, 10-15 years ago they easily could be in size and power consumption of flagship constructions.
ps. Some 7900 GRE and 4070 Ti Super, overclocked versions, can consume even 300-330W in some benchmarks or for short bursts in games when needed.

I only just switched my 1060 3gb for a rx 7800xt, used it since like 2019 or so. You don't need to spend over 200 to play comfortably right now, I could have kept using it for at least 2 years I think.

@@GrindtimeZay I don't know anything about ps5 but I'm assuming it's because it's always trying to max quality so those things will make it struggle. For budget build you are looking at mid settings with 40-80 fps, depending on game and AAA are likely going to be low settings. 8gb will be plenty because some settings use more ram than others, this is for 1080p btw.

Idk man. Many of us 970 havers were satisfied owners. Card performed admirably for the average 1080p gamer.
@@pranayarana1958 you'd of been satisfied no matter what you brought because you wouldnt have known better, i was using a 980ti back then with 6GB of VRAM and that was good until it started to hit the VRAM cap so i can only imagine how much worse it would have been with gimped vram, but thats the point with a card in mid range and especially so with that card, you'll want to upgrade faster, anything in the 1000 series would have seemed like a big upgrade.
the GTX 1060 6GB was genuinely good, it's not just because of mining.
i don't use mine anymore but i gave it away and its still able to play badly optimized games like Hogwarts Legacy on a 1050p monitor (and 1080p for any other game), it was just that good.
the Pascal entire generation was the biggest jump of price/performances that ever existed (i'm talking about the entire gen, not just one GPU like the 4090 is).
since then the market is stagnant, NVIDIA doesn't give enough VRAM, their "budget" GPU's just recently went back to the normal price (accounting for inflation) but everything from a 70 to a 80 is severely overinflated, and the 90 is now an AI GPU that's not even meant for gamers anymore.
oh and AMD still doesn't exist because instead of selling cheaper GPU's, they went the greedy way like NVIDIA by following their prices very closely but unlike them AMD doesn't have good tech behind their GPU's and now they announced they're stopping the high budget GPU's.
My memory is foggy so far back, but I feel like the Geforce 8 series was the biggest jump in performance over previous gen. 10 series is definitely legendary!

Thats awesome. I remember going from my 8800gt to my 560ti to my 970 haha. I guess i was very mainstream for a while cause those were all the most popular cards at the time. I guess after that the way to tell whether an upgrade is in order is to see if theres anything faster than what you have in the top 3 or 4 spaces. If there is, it's time for an upgrade!
Still rocking my 970, newer rigs have 3080ti and 4090, super cool charting.
note that prior to 2010 ... the top card for the longest time was nivida's high end card... around 2010 -2012 this started change when nivida really started jacking their prices regularly every generation.
It was 599 USD for the 8800 GTX (2006). It was 499 USD for the GTX 285 (2009) and a GTX 480 (2010) and a GTX 680 (2012).
A GTX 980 (2014) went for 549 USD and a GTX 1080 (2016) went for 599 USD.
So, an Artx 3080 went for 699 USD in 2020. That is a great price.
So, the prices stayed super low and constant for MANY ages. The only time prices sky-rocketed was the 4000 series. When performance jumps were finally above 25%-36% rasterization.
@@Twitch_Moderator the only thing consistant with their prices was that their top end got 50 to 100 bucks more expensive every other generation , inflation didn't move that fast. i lived it dude i saw the prices creep sure nivida had a spike witht eh 4000's series but they were consistantly raising prices every other generation of card
the top tier card of 2000 (the geforce 2 ultra) went for 270-320 bucks (about 550-650 today) got to keep in mind the 1080 came out before the inflation boom of bidenomics . and even at 599 it was well above what inflation dicated it should have been in 2017... and the titan .... that thing launched at $999 meaning in 2017 the most top tier card was already 3x more expensive than 2000's top tier card.
the 1080 had nivida actually followed inflation should have been around 350-400 bucks while the titan should have been around 600-650 .
so stop the bull shit . i'm not bashing nvidia hell i got a 4080 super myself . but you can't defend their pricing or make up stories about some kind of consistant pricing . the only thing they have been consistant with is steadily raising prices above what inflation would call for. the 4000 series pricing was a whole nother level of "f*ck you" to the consumer though that i xo agree with you on.

Well if they cant compete with tech/high end GPUs, their best chance is to compete with price/amount of VRAM. With latest raytracing and DLSS 3 tech its no wonder Nvidia is dominating the charts
All those entry level people at the top are going to be real disappointed as games continue to be increasingly more demanding the way they have been lately.
not so much, GPUs have stagnated sobad all they have no are tricks, frame gen, AI etc that will dominate and is dominating GPUs.
I had two 7600 GS in SLI with my Core 2 Duo. Then I got the 8800 GTS LeadTek 320 MB. I paid around $320 for it back in 2007 I think.
Were you kicking yourself for not getting the 640MB? I know I kind of was when I got the 256MB 8800GT for ~$230 in 2007. It did respectably but should have spent the extra $50 for the 512MB, lol.
I still have a 1060. Upgraded everythign else in my system, just saving up for a rx7700XT
why would you buy an amd card💀💀
@@potato-km6iwBetter rasterization, better price to performance, better company that's trying to put out products that meets consumers where they're at instead of making demands for more money they don't need. Unless you're getting a 4090 or 4080s, there's no reason to get an nvidia gpu

Radeon HD 4xxx oh boi, the inferno 100 degrees and Ati drivers era.
Still better than the GTX260 that was sold at twice the price of the Radeon cards for only 15% more perf at that time
GTX 1060 be like: 🗿
i built my first pc with a sapphire hd 6870 in 2012, so nostalgic to see it in the list
How was the life span of the Sapphire GPU ?
@@ramgopalraikwar1420 I stopped using it in 2017 when I bought a new pc, but its still working actually
@@ramgopalraikwar1420 I had a Sapphire 6950 in 2010 or 2011 or so. It never broke on me, must've used it for at least 6 years. But I was a little bit disappointed with the performance back then even at launch. It struggled more with Metro 2033 than I expected it to.
Gtx 1060 walked so 3060 could run
Pc gaming since the 90s and Im happy with my first AMD GPU the 7900 XTX, screw nvidias $1200 4080
With how much tech youtubers yap about AMD, i expected more, and certainly not the RDNAs 1 through 3 being grouped into "other"
They yap bcz you get much better bang for buck with AMD but you cant un-stupid people buying gpus so thats that... As for "other" its probably integrated amd gpus, but not sure
@@rogoznicafc9672 I got the rx 6800 and it is incredible now that they released fsr 3 into cp 2077 i play ultra rt 1440p high settings and get 60-80 fps and the drivers are flawless people are living in the past forsure, the card only cost 370 new currently.
AMD is for people who know what they're doing. Nvidia is for sheep 🐑
According to your stupid ass
The 3060 and 4060 is better than the 4090 because its above it in the list
@@tobeymaguire647 I might be completely wrong here, but I think AMD makes up a much larger proportion of NEW sales than the steam charts would lead you to believe. The nvidia stats are just boosted by older gpus being used in internet cafes in China.
Man the 1060 was my first GPU in 2018… it was a legend, sold it to my friend upgrade to a 3070, then to a 3080, and lastly a 4090. Times have changed definitely… but that 1060 got me through some really hard times and it worked super well.
Why did you go from the 3070 to a 3080? Seems a short time span to upgrade.
1080ti i7 3770 and 32ram here! Resistance!
Nice. You'll be able to take that GPU with you if you ever get a new system. 3770 is MAJORLY holding the 1080 ti back 👍
Long live the 3770!
I'm currently abusing a 3770K @ 4.5GHz all-core, and a 3090 Hybrid.
Only 16G ram, but it is RipJaws V @ 8-8-9-24
I7-3770k and GTX 690 here 😂
I still am using the 1070 I bought two weeks after they launched and probably will until it dies. Five years in I was just waiting to buy a new card but now it's curiosity to see how long it's still usable on games I play 🤣
Amd really got reduced to other
Do you know what is this "other"???
@@OmnianMIU Yes. "Radeon (other)" was used to represent the sum of all the AMD Radeon GPUs, including the RDNA 1-3 ones such as RX 5700XT, RX 6800XT, RX 7700XT and so on.
There just aren't many people that would rather miss out on mainstream features that Nvidia cards offer just to save a couple of bucks. It almost makes NO sense to buy an AMD/ATi card unless the hate in your heart consumes you and you despise Nvidia.
Ie: gaming performance of a 7900XTX vs a 4080 SUPER. It is $50 cheaper to get a 4080S, and it is 17% more powerful in gaming than the 7900XTX. Yet, some people still hang on for dear life to the AMD card just in spite of Nvidia.
nope, only older ones. those gpus together have a few more percentage, but dont show up because its too little @Hardcore_Remixer
@@Twitch_Moderator Honestly what you have written here is absolute lie. Atleast in my country 7900XTX is at least 30% cheaper than 4080 super - 1000€ vs 1300€ and it's actually a little bit faster than 4080 super, I really don't know what leads people like you to lie like that, in the long run lies like this hurts ALL customers, since as we know, many people will straight up believe everything they read. Oh and in Raytracing it IS slower than 4080 super, for sure, however it's still at a 4070 Ti level, which isn't too bad.
Also what mainstream feautures are you talking about? FSR and XEss is very good, FG2 is also very good. Only one thing thats missing is CUDA, but thats hardly a mainstream technology for gamers.
people really be feeling like winning coz their card has the biggest graph here :D
WELL DONE!
I’m actually surprised that Nvidia has that much more of a market share. Amd is really good. Hopefully with this next launch, they get a bit more attention. Their CPUs are doing really well though.
Radeon gpus was, is and will be garbage as always
@@OmnianMIU proof? Price to performance is way better. I got a 6950xt for $500. Rubs as good as a 3080 ti.
@@deanguy all trashdeon are obsolete, see benchmark of new games, end
@@OmnianMIU bros just mad he spent 20% more for an Nvidia card for the same performance
@@deanguy 20% more? Same performance?🤣🤣 ignorant
I bought the GTX970 in 2015. Still works fine in the spare bedroom in the system I leave in there for when friends stay 9 years later. I used it actively playing just about everything until the RTX 3060 12GB came out in 2022 which is my current board. So I guess I made the right choices :)
i am wondering where is 6800 xt. one of the best cards with price/performance ratio
It's because the average person buys Nvidia by default because they don't do any research
@@tobeymaguire647 yeah it can be + I remember that radeon 6000 series were uber expensive when they were released because of covid and chip shortage. I remember I paid 1650 EUR for brand new 6900XT. If prices were normal, I believe this graph could have changed
@@tobeymaguire647a big reason for why nvidia is so dominant is also the fact that nvidia has pretty much zero competition in the laptop gpu market, I couldn't find a single laptop in my country that has an amd gpu.
@@tobeymaguire647Amd has less factories all over the world resulting in higher tax in more country/market, making it lose its strongest point, price. And honestly people won't care if they lose 5fps when they upgrade from a 2060 or 1060 to 4060 or even 4070 instead of an rx7800xt. It is just so ideal with their lower power consumption, while being of the same price if not cheaper than amd outside of the US.
Getting an amd cpu is better right now, if you have a goal in mind for your specific build, amd gpu can fill that gap. But the majority of pc are built for games and light work, how many people do you think need 24gb of vram 😅.
So sure, they are better in some cases, always better in raw power, but just more hassle for what an average person needs that they can find in nvidia.
I used an Gigabyte HD7970 from Dec 2012 to Nov 2018 along with an I5 3570K. It was good enough for some VR games on the Vive. Never let me down.
Halo 3 warthog run 🗿🗿
Watching this on a 4090 with a HX850i PSU, waiting for 9800X3D to become stocked item again. The cards I still have that was on the list are the Geforce 9800, the Radeon HD6970 and the GTX 970.
2016 until last month i was using a 1060
man seeing the 580x making it up there was gr8 ive had this card for over 5 years running games in 1440p and it still kicking hard amazing gpu from amd
In the end AMD is nowhere to be found. NV is absolutely dominating.
Get ready to pay monopolistic premium prices for subpar performance. 4060 style.
@@moravianlion3108 Oh, that`s why the 4060 is so popular.
@@brugj03I think it's because it's included with prebuilts and Nvidia is a buzzword that non techsavvy people know
Things like cell phones, TVs, computers, etc, you are always upgrading or replacing. So, why complain?
Cell phones cost $1,000+ now. You either pay off 75% of thar price over a 2-year contract, or you pay it all up front.
So, why complain about paying $1,200 every 2-3 years for a graphics card? (which will being you MANY MORE hours of fun).
@@Twitch_Moderator Don`t bother they are complaining because they are seeking attention.
In the end they just upgrade.
This is actually really insane. My lens into what cards were so popular did not reflect AT ALL what was actually being used. The 1080ti was hardly on the board. I thought that card would STILL be somewhere on the chart even today, but it was practically irrelevant compared to the renown it's gotten over the years. This chart was dominated by budget cards. Guess I can't be surprised
