A report by Jon Peddie Research makes it clear that the gaming hardware industry, specifically graphics cards, is doing very well and that NVIDIA continues to gain ground from AMD in the graphics market.
We are in the middle of a graphic battle between AMD and NVIDIA. AMD is reportedly planning to present a full AMD Vega, while NVIDIA has re-scheduled an event where they will present the NVIDIA GTX 1080Ti. In the midst of this whirlwind of information, the sale of graphics cards was announced last year, where NVIDIA has walked, not having direct competition from NVIDIA in the upper part of the mid-range and in the range high.
According to Jon Peddie Research, NVIDIA has grown in the graphics card market, while AMD has suffered a downturn in market share. The report establishes that NVIDIA has 70.5% of the market share in the last quarter of last year, while in Q3 it registered 70.2%, an apparently modest increase, but that dragged on over time. AMD for its part has dropped to 29.5% market share, while in Q3 it had 29.8% of the market.
It should be noted that the graphics card industry is in a golden moment, since many graphic cards dedicated to gaming are still sold, since users are committed to investing in powerful custom equipment and want machines that last for a long time and allow them to enjoy all the games in high quality.
"The dedicated graphics card market has defied slowdown for a year now, showing gains, while the overall PC market declines." Commented John Peddie, President of Jon Peddie Investigation, dedicated to the investigation of the technology industry and the consulting of graphics and multimedia.
The report highlights that discrete solutions for All-in-Board equipment, which includes desktops, workstations, servers and platforms for specific tasks, are growing, but very little, with an almost flat trend. The quarter-over-quarter AIB market grew 5.6%, while the desktop PC market grew 19.4%. This leaves desktop computers as a mainstay, which brands are trying to exploit.
The trend clearly indicates that desktop computers are a trend, especially for gaming, that each strip more of the computer industry. All the data we've seen over the past few quarters indicates a bonanza in advanced, gaming-focused hardware, while hardware for clone rigs and simple setups is increasingly losing steam.

The truth is that your latest reports that deal with AMD are very disgusting .. it shows a lot that you are not objective .. poor guy .. I hope at least that INTEL and NVIDIA give you some money for this .. but you are just a poor guy resentful..
I am very disgusted by people who cannot read. The data is clearly a market report. The RX 400 Series are quite sad, since the 480, which is supposed to be the most powerful, is between the GTX 1060 and the GTX 1070, very far from the GTX 1080. We have an RX 480 in the office and with reality virtual hits, something that does not happen with the GTX 1060, which is better optimized for VR. We have the HTC VIVE. If fewer graphics have been sold, say it and that's it.
The fact that they sell less is a fact, just as they compete in two sectors and the story would be different if they were only in one sector, but apart from that, it is assumed that "Vega" would compete in the high range, that is to say the RX480 is correct in its segment.
The report indicates that the share in this period last year was 21,6%, now it is 29,5%. All the points that AMD raised were lost from the Nvidia quota, they read the report backwards again chiquis
I translate it from left to right: 'Market this quarter', 'Market last quarter', 'Market last year'. Who reads what they really want?
