Yesterday, Jon Peddie research published its analysis of the graphics card and processor sector. This analysis gives very different figures from those shared by MindFactory, which, it has to be said, sells a lot of AMD hardware. However, the study reveals that on the dedicated graphics card market, NVIDIA massively dominates this sector. The Chameleon has a 92% share of the AIB market for dedicated graphics cards
NVIDIA’s market share continues to grow in Q1 2025!
NVIDIA clearly has a monopoly in the dedicated graphics card sector. In fact, with a 92% market share, the company can hardly be said to be leaving room for its competitors, Intel and AMD. The Reds have an 8% market share, while Intel, with its Arc B580 and B570, accounted for virtually…nothing out of 9.2 million GPUs sold this quarter. Unfortunately, sales of the Blues’ cards are not enough to be significant in JPR’s stats. In an ideal world, each manufacturer would enjoy a 33% share, but we’re a long way from that. It has to be said that the Chameleon started to roll out its new series of cards very quickly this year, compared with AMD. While the RX 9070 (XT) were launched in March, the RTX 50 started arriving at the end of January. What’s more, AMD’s range included just two cards in the first quarter, while NVIDIA launched four. Naturally, all this counts in the figures, since the new generation of Redss arrived at the end of the quarter. Even though NVIDIA cards were in short supply at launch, AMD customers preferred to wait for the new generation rather than buy an end-of-life RX 7000. Now, we’re not saying that Reds are going to climb back to 50% share in Q2 2025, no. However, based on subsequent analyses, it’s not impossible to see the Reds’ market share rise again. Especially since the RX 9070 (XT) seemed to be selling well. At least, the company was boasting particularly good sales figures. It remains to be seen how this will translate into the firm’s next study.
