Third-quarter graphics card sales data presented by Jone Peddie Researchs, which is in good shape, with an increase of 30% for NVIDIA and 8% for AMD.
Cryptocurrencies have led to a good year for NVIDIA and AMD in the graphics card market, due to the large volume of sales for mining digital currencies. Even AMD, for quite some time has had problems supplying graphics of the RX 400 Series and RX 500 Series families, also causing these to skyrocket in terms of prices. Despite the positive balance from AMD, the award goes to NVIDIA, which has achieved significantly more sales than direct competition.
According to data from Jon Peddie Researchs, AMD has seen an increase of 7.63% compared to the internal quarter and Intel is up 5.01% in terms of graphics this quarter. NVIDIA also shows a rise, but in this chaos this rise has been 29.53%. In addition, among the interesting data, the discrete graphics market represents 39.55%, registering an increase of 4.18%. We are going as this market is very healthy, but this month, due to the possible rise in prices due to the rise in VRAM, we could see a significant drop in sales, although Christmas and Black Friday could help alleviate this effect.
We also see an increase in the sale of dedicated graphics with respect to the second quarter, of 10.31%, but with respect to the third quarter of last year there has been a fall of 2.06%. In addition, graphics for desktop computers customized by each of the manufacturers have registered an increase of 29.05%, compared to the previous quarter. The data for this fourth quarter is expected not to be so good, although this compulsive shopping season could mitigate the problem, which will be felt more next year.
