NVIDIA Crushes Rivals: Secures Unprecedented 90% of GPU Market in Q3 2024

AMD and Intel Struggle as NVIDIA Hits Historic GPU Market Share Domination

finance.yahoo.com

---

In a historic turn, Nvidia (NVDA, Financial) has once again taken the top spot, with a whopping 90% of the global GPU market share in Q3 2024. This dominance, says Jon Peddie Research (JPR) mascot, is a difficult environment for AMD and Intel competitors. Five years ago, AMD was a minor player in the space, and its share shrunk to just 10%, while Intel has scarcely budged.

Though GPU shipments overall have fallen by 7.9% year over year and 14.5% quarter over quarter, NVIDIA has laid down markers as the leading force in the GPU sector. The fall in graphics has been caused by consumer anticipation for next gen GPUs, namely NVIDIA's RTX 50 series, AMD's RX 8000 series, which have been tipped to rekindle the market.

Master Race, you ready to embrace a $799 RTX 5050?

 

[MiguelItUp]

Of course they do, and it's gross. I really hope AMD and Intel step it up in the future. We need more and better competition.

 

[nkarafo]

We deserve what we get.

And the next thing we will get is a 5050 rebranded as 5060, with only 8GB VRAM at $450.

Good job everyone.

 

[rofif]

this is really bad

 

[winjer]

No wonder nvidia is charging so much money, even for low end gpus.

 

[Gaiff]

Master Race, you ready to embrace a $799 RTX 5050?

Here's to more $700 consoles and $2000 GPUs.

 

[Imtjnotu]

They make the best product..

But fucking hell. With no real competition, they can make up any price they want

 

[Kacho]

Not surprised. If you make the best product people will buy it, even at a premium price point. I haven't bought an AMD gpu since 2005.

 

[demigod]

We deserve what we get.

Good job everyone.

It’s not our fault AMD shit the bed.

It's hard to break into the market when you have a reputation as good as Nvidia's. AMD dropped the ball when it came to GPU technology and pricing. They charged equally as much for their cards as Nvidias but they quality wasn't there to back it up. Intel is too new coming into this and was never really a presents in the GPU realm. The price for performance for the B580 might catch the eye of some but not enough. Nvidia has a strangle hold on the GPU market and unless AMD starts dropping their prices, you won't see much change.

AMD can drop their prices all they want. Won't matter. NVIDIA will also lower theirs and people will flock to NVIDIA.

There's no way around it. AMD has to release competitive products. They need to stop being the budget pity option that people pick because NVIDIA at that given price point is too expensive.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Well, hopefully Intel can get up and running. AMD needs to up its game too but I’m not sure that will happen

 

[RagnarokIV]

Master Race, you ready to embrace a $799 RTX 5050?

You'd have to be 5150 to buy a $799 5050

 

[demigod]

Not surprised. If you make the best product people will buy it, even at a premium price point. I haven't bought an AMD gpu since 2005.

The last high end card I bought was a 1900 XTX and surprisingly it was ATI. Card was a beast at the time. I’ve bought some AMDs but it was when they got cheaper than msrp.

What was it, like a $50 discount against the 3080 and they didnt have DLSS equivalent? GTFO here AMD.

 

[JimboJones]

It’s not our fault AMD shit the bed.

That and nVidia for all their faults are very forward looking and deliver the goods. It's just a shame they have no issues demanding a premium and annoyingly skimp on vram.

 

[poodaddy]

Intel's upcoming GPU's are easily the best performance per dollar in the mid range, let's see if it ends up mattering. The industry desperately needs competition, yes, but people have to give that competition a shot for it to matter. People are so unwilling to try anything other than Nvidia, and I'm part of the problem. I've never used anything but Nvidia, so I'm admittedly a bit apprehensive about changing sides, but if the other guys offer me a product that beats my RTX 2080 without breaking the bank, then I'll be in, but I'm not paying Nvidia's jerk off prices for high end. It's weird, I've always fashioned myself a high end GPU customer, but as my daughter's gotten older and responsibilities mount up, I can see me strictly being a mid range guy in future builds.

 

[nkarafo]

True, but consumers should have never accepted some cards like the 4060. It should have been the massive failure it deserves.

Yep, the bottom line is AMD just need to release better products and improve their technology stack.

Slightly lower prices are not enough when their RT and AI upscaling tech is so far behind. Comparatively, Nvidia is worth the extra cost as things stand.

 

[Solarstrike]

How do I enable crypto mining with Nvidia GPU with a simple button press, while I'm playing a game or sleeping? I want to get rich like Elon.

 

[Magic Carpet]

What percent of that is Gamers?

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Made possible by all the GAMERS (tm) who complain about Nvidia, demand cheaper cards from AMD and then order the next GPU from team green. Rinse and repeat.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

What percent of that is Gamers?

A look into the Steam stats should tell you all you want to know.

Pretty much that, when back in the day ATI/AMD cards were hundreds of dollars cheaper, sometimes just straight up half the price. Even then they were plagued with compatibility and driver issues. You can't do garner a reputation that bad and expect people not to keep it in mind when you start getting your shit together. And now they have really competitive cards, but why buy them when they are priced so similarly to Nvidia's selection?

 

[BlownUpRich]

This is very bad for the market, but at the same time, they make the best products, can you blame the consumer? I think not, but get ready for preposterously inflated prices & relative VRAM greed in the mid/low tier plus manipulative tactics, as if it hasn't been painfully obvious since 4 years ago...

But I gotta say, the whole RTX platform that they have created, getting developers to support stuff like the latest DLSS, Path Tracing, providing the most powerful cards & having a substantial leap in RT & AI rendering over competitors is what makes Nvidia the best, actually trying to push the envelope in real-time graphics is something I will always look forward to, seems like they're the ones that are doing this the most, which I like.

That being said, I cannot wait for what the 50-series will provide, I bet DLSS 4.0 will blow us away!

 

[analog_future]

gimme dat RTX 5090

 

[SmokedMeat]

You thought the 40XX series hurt.

 

[BlownUpRich]

gimme dat RTX 5090

I'm with you, I'm also looking forward to it, let's all consooom!

 

[BennyBlanco]

What percent of that is Gamers?

Is crypto mining even a thing anymore?

 

[Kadve]

They make the best product..

But fucking hell. With no real competition, they can make up any price they want

For now. Companies always starts coasting when they reach close to a monopoly. Just look at Internet Explorer and the original GameBoy.

 

[Magic Carpet]

Is crypto mining even a thing anymore?

I thought GPU's were now being used to put all the artists out of work.

 

[SweetTooth]

Oh no ... Nvidia NEEDS competition/s

 

[NeverYouMind]

To have 90% of the industry and still have the worst drivers and user interface...

 

[MikeM]

Im doing my part with my previous 6700xt and current 7900xt. Really don’t get the hate AMD GPUs get.

 

[Imtjnotu]

For now. Companies always starts coasting when they reach close to a monopoly. Just look at Internet Explorer and the original GameBoy.

Thing is tho, AMD is two generations behind.

Nvidia can coast and still give us the best graphics performance for the next ten years.

 

[Buggy Loop]

It’s not our fault AMD shit the bed.

Oh no

I agree with demigod

 

[Bojji]

It's bad for consumers...

It's partially AMD fault for not having competitive GPUs (power, features, prices...) and partially that people just don't want to buy other GPUs.

I'm part of the problem.

 

[P:axMagellanic]

Force a company split, already.

 

[Topher]

Hate I'm part of the problem. I would love to have an alternative to Nvidia. Their pricing is in line with market dominance and that isn't going to change until there is real competition.

 

[Mithos]

Hate I'm part of the problem.

Me too, I'm to lazy to switch and relearn the ins and outs of an AMD or Intel GPU.

Surely the headline and claim in the opening sentence is wrong and misleading?

If I've reading the bolded part correctly, this is only about GPU accelerator cards and the overall market share of Intel and AMD by virtue of their integrated GPUs in CPUs is the biggest sector of GPU users, no?

IMO the cost of accelerators is going up because the proportion of diverse hardware 'PC gamers' that are okay with integrated graphics is growing quicker than the high-end market is replacing those customers and that in 10years a 10Teraflop GPU will be integrated level in mid-low CPUs eliminating the need for a dedicated GPU, leaving a much smaller niche than today , and until then the much maligned FSR will continue to convert more people that game on the cheaper end of PC to desktop and portable systems with integrated graphics by AMD and Intel.

 

[A.Romero]

IMO they are just the best. They might be overpriced but in general you get what you pay for in terms of software. Performance per buck might not be as good (unless you include DLSS in the mix) but at least in my experience they are pretty stable and durable.

 

[Skifi28]

Here's to more $700 consoles and $2000 GPUs.

 

[Alebrije]

This is Bad for consumers on the long run.

 

[dorkimoe]

This is Bad for consumers on the long run.

This, too bad this forum doesnt feel the same about consoles when 1 dominates.

 

[Insane Metal]

I mean, their GPUs trounce those of the competitor so that's expected. Too bad about the price though.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Hopefully the stock can get into the $150s when the 5000 series and Super Switch release.

 

[Topher]

Me too, I'm to lazy to switch and relearn the ins and outs of an AMD or Intel GPU.

I'd jump in a heartbeat really if one of those other companies offered comparable products. They just don't.

 

[namenotfound]

Is crypto mining even a thing anymore?

It is but it's more about data centers these days. The other thing people do now as well are crypto networks made up of GPUs where people submit dockerfiles for AI training workloads and pay with crypto. Don't know if any of them are actually popular and I doubt that's anywhere close to as popular as when people were mining a lot of crypto directly with GPUs. I'd guess Nvidia would be 90%+ on gaming and possibly more in data center but that doesn't mean AMD GPUs are making less profit though. I know AMD GPU data center has been showing year over year growth and data center GPUs have way higher profit margins

AMD Boosts Instinct GPU Sales Forecast Again Due To High AI Demand

AMD said it now expects to make more than $5 billion from sales of its Instinct data center GPUs this year due to high demand from customers like Meta and Microsoft.

www.crn.com

So Nvidia has been dominating what's been a significantly growing market post-ChatGPT. Of the 3, it seems to me only Intel hasn't hit its stride yet losing data center CPU market share to AMD and Amazon and other data center companies doing their own internal chips and pushing them to customers. Intel GPU consumer and data center is a work in progress. Regardless I'm looking towards the AMD 8700xt or 8800xt. I rarely play anything that needs top end hardware and don't mind turning down or off ray tracing

 

[poppabk]

A 4060 doesn't trounce a 7600xt.
