In Valve’s monthly hardware survey (which we don’t have to take part in, of course), the top GPU has increased its share by 34% in one month…
Valve has released its September Steam hardware survey and it seems that the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 and 4060 Ti have made a big leap forward. The 4060 jumped +1.17% and the 4060 Ti jumped +0.76%. In the case of the RTX 4060, it went from 3.41% to 4.58% among users, a jump of 34% from August to September. Taking into account the laptop version, the Ada Lovelace architecture is considered the most popular on Gabe Newell’s digital platform.
The results are skewed by the Chinese market, as Simplified Chinese usage grew by 1.54%, and with the release of Black Myth: Wukong by Game Science for PlayStation 5 and PC on August 20th, it is likely that interest in the Chinese studio’s game continued unabated during the first month of fall. In addition, it is understandable that the RTX 4060/4060 Ti user base is growing, as Nvidia’s new Blackwell architecture, which will be seen in the GeForce RTX 5000 graphics cards (and AMD is also preparing RX 8000 cards), is about to be released and they are trying to get rid of the remaining stock…
Windows 10 users have seen an interesting increase, with +1.57% of users on the previous OS. This has siphoned off users from other operating systems, but mostly from Windows 11, as Microsoft’s latest OS ended September with -1.48%, and previously 11 overtook 10 on Steam! Apart from that, the other results of the survey are not that interesting.
The GeForce RTX 4060 is Nvidia’s mainstream card based on the Ada Lovelace architecture. There is no desktop RTX 4050 GPU made in this generation, although we saw it in the previous generation, and there they released a redesigned RTX 3050 that is WORSE, and there it would have been fair to call it RTX 3040…
