Steam Hardware & Software Survey: January 2014

Steam conducts a monthly survey to collect data about what kinds of computer hardware and software our customers are using. Participation in the survey is optional, and anonymous. The information gathered is incredibly helpful to us as we make decisions about what kinds of technology investments to make and products to offer.

Just a few stats for those who are interested

The CPU chart is always the one that shocks me.

I see windows 8.1 increased a little. Woo .

 

[Doco]

Cool, always interested in numbers

Also English is JUST under 50% for probably the first time.

Anyone actually participated in this survey? I don't recall ever having the option but wouldn't mind joining in.

that 4.68% in core count is us the fx8xx/fx6xx users , (and maybe the sb-e/ivy-e users)

In Steam click Help - System Information - Compare your hardware to that of other users.

Ok but does that make an entry to the survey?

 

[BloodyL]

I do believe so, not 100% sure though.

Wonder if CrossFire registers as CrossFire yet instead of reporting as SLi.

Ok but does that make an entry to the survey?

Yes.

Also the survey sample is chosen at random so you don't always get a pop up.
