AMD CPU Market Share Jumps 43% in April Alone, Steam Survey Shows – But Did it Really?

The [Steam] survey figures have tended to especially under-report AMD hardware, both on the CPU and GPU sides. Often times by a very significant margin..

Steam survey has also been wildly inconsistent in many regards, except in its ability to significantly under-report AMD hardware. There have been a lot of theories and speculation as to why that is..

The jump for AMD we’re seeing in April is likely the result of an improvement to Steam’s ability to detect AMD processors, rather than a massive and sudden share gain...


Interesting that Steam has routinely under-reported AMD use by Gamers. I always believed the Steam Intel/Nvidia vs AMD numbers -- dummy me. At least, they may be "un-stacking" the deck now.

AMD sales has not caught up. Intel/Nvidia remain on top, sales wise. I expect things to remain that way for at least a few years. Intel/Nvidia make great products (no one is wrong to buy them) -- but, so does AMD, and traditionally AMD gives more practical performance for one's Dollar, Euro, etc (currently GPUs still ridiculous). I expect the Intel/Nvidia lead to shrink over time, if properly reported.
