Over the years, NVIDIA’s RTX 2060 has been the “people’s choice” and ranked #1 on Steam’s GPU Acceleration Popularity Rankings. This was quite logical, because even during the mining boom, this model was an approximate so-called \u201cgolden mean\u201d in terms of price and performance, plus it supported DLSS and RTX, which is important.<\/p>\n

And only now, after the cessation of production of this model and the launch of the RTX 40 generation, gamers were able to change the situation – now the most popular video card on Steam, and therefore in the whole world, is the RTX 3060 model.<\/p>\n

\"Only
Only with the release of a new generation of graphics accelerators did gamers manage to move the RTX 2060 from the first place<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

According to Valve’s digital platform, at the end of March 2023, 10.44% of all gamers who use the Steam client own the RTX 3060 video card.\u00a0Of course, there are players in the world who play only through the launcher of the Epic Games Store or Ubisoft Connect, for example, but this is an extremely small audience.<\/p>\n

Accordingly, we can say that about a tenth of all gamers in the world are now playing on the RTX 3060, while the legendary RTX 2060 has gone to second position with a share of 7.89%.\u00a0In third place, which is quite expected, is the extremely affordable RTX 1060 graphics card – it has 7.69% of the market.<\/p>\n

It is noteworthy that the new generation of NVIDIA video cards, even six months after the announcement, could not achieve popularity.\u00a0For example, the flagship RTX 4090 graphics card is the highest in the top at 52 positions, which has only 0.25% of the entire market.\u00a0T<\/p>\n

he situation is even worse for the more affordable RTX 4080 and RTX 4070 Ti models, since all together they have still not been able to win even 1% of the market.\u00a0But to say that things are going badly for NVIDIA is also impossible – the \u201cgreen team\u201d currently holds 82.6% of the video card market, while AMD has only 10.8%.\u00a0Somewhere in the ranking, Intel also flickers, but so far in such a small proportion that it\u2019s not even worth talking about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
