    I would argue that this is effect partially due to the finer segmentation of amd gpu models in each generation. The wider the spread, the harder it is for an individual model to get a high rank.

    Also amd only recently started making competitive gpus and there are lots of 900/1000 gen nvidia cards still in use.

        I guess yeah. Looking at the fact that some intel models made it in tho, it looks like laptops and prebuilts are a huge part of this ranking.

        I think if you were to just look at direct sales for dedicated gpus, amd would look better.

    I ended up with a 6600XT (somewhat rare card now, but it’s a 6600 with a higher TDP) in my Linux rig. I was upgrading from a GTX 970.

    I have been quite happy with performance since I only play at 1080p, though 8GB of VRAM can be problematic in flight simming.

    Model aside, definitely worth the AMD switch on Linux, though.

    I more amazed the most used gpu on steam still isn’t enough to crack the top 30. I assumed Steam represented most all PC gamers. Has AI really affected commercial work stations that much where most companies are buying work stations with high end gpu’s? Or thst my understand that workstations generally didn’t require anything more than an integrated gpu at most.
