NVIDIA Dominates AIB GPU Market With 92% Share In Q1 2025, AMD Drops To 8% & Intel To 0%

NVIDIA is starting 2025 strong with a 92% market share in the AIB GPU market, whereas the competition is down to single digits.

Wow what a big suprise!

Back in December 2024 we thought Intel will gain marketshare after Battlemage launch but peformance was very underwhelmed in latest AAA games benchmarks, Intel AIB share hit rock bottom 0% as nobody was daft to buy Battlemage GPUs that it is only a small performance jump from Alchemist. Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger was right to be very concerned about future Battlemage sales figure and consider to cancel future desktop GPU developements if it fail to gain marketshare.

AMD AIB share collapsed historic all time low 8% in Q1 2025, AMD thought RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT was most successful launch ever shipped over 200,000 units in first 2 weeks but the report painted very different picture showed probably only a few thousands sold worldwide.

Blackwell is Nvidia most successful launch in the history achieved historic 92% AIB marketshare with launch of RTX 5090, 5080, 5070Ti and 5070 GPUs shipped in massive demand in Q1 2025. I guess AMD set RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT prices far too high for high end mainstream and both RX 9060 and RX 9060 XT performance was disappointed and underwhelmed. RTX 5070 probably has largest marketshare at sweetspot £500 start price that was much better value last month with free DOOM: The Dark Ages bundle worth £100 than most expensive Asus Radeon RX 9060 XT TUF with very poor perfomance for £400.

OCUK alone sold over 10,000 so this is extremely unlikely. Their numbers worldwide must surely be in the hundreds of thousands, maybe even a million or more.

I bought the Intel B580 around it's launch time just to try it out, and it's decent value for money, so was the 9070xt (If I wasn't gaming at 4K 240) but 1440p I'd have kept it, but at the end of the day I'm in the enthusiast segment and no one else is playing ball.

I think what happened was
ocuk sold 10,000 or more and then all the other retailers sold a negative number of them and that obviously brought the total sold back down to a few thousand obviously

Things may not improve for Intel

They've announced new policy that any product or project that is forecast to generate under 50% gross margin will not get approved. That likely affects Intel's desktop GPUs because they need to be price competitive with Nvidia and AMD but due to inefficiencies they cost more to manufacture than Nvidia/AMD's GPus do

Intel draws a line in the sand to boost gross margins — new products must deliver 50% gross profit to get the green light

OP's post sounds like it was written by ChatGPT.

Q1 would mean to the end of March. Nvidia from February had launched the RTX5090,RTX5080,RTX5070TI and RTX5070 by then for both retail and for pre built systems including laptops.

AMD had barely got out two of the cards for DIY desktop buyers for a few weeks,let alone pre built systems. Half of dGPU sales are in laptops alone and AMD has seemed to forgotten they existed!

As I said in the other thread, pre built sales swamp DIY sales, because that is where the true volume lies.

Trump also clamped down on Nvidia dGPU exports to China starting in March onwards so there was a massive rush from them to import cards, including higher end gaming cards.

The Chinese have been using neighbouring countries to import a lot of RTX4090,etc for use in AI. Just look at countries like Singapore seeing a massive rise in sales just as sales in China was restricted:

DeepSeek GPU smuggling probe shows Nvidia's Singapore GPU sales are 28% of its revenue, but only 1% are delivered to the country: Report

Is Singapore being used for transshipment of banned AI chips to China?

www.tomshardware.com

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/03/nvidia-unofficial-exports-to-china-face-scrutiny-after-singapore-arrests.html

Singapore accounted for 18% of Nvidia’s revenue in the fiscal year ended Jan. 28, based on “customer billing location,” but less than 2% of revenue in terms of products shipped to the country.

Singapore accounted for one fifth of Nvidia revenue.

We know what some outlets had and there's that german shop that keeps posting their sales figures so when you say AMD only sold a few thousand worldwide it's pretty clear you're making it up as you go between quoting the JPR numbers. No actual insight.

DIY is what gets talked about here and the popular tech media but DIY is very small.

OCUK alone sold over 10,000 so this is extremely unlikely. Their numbers worldwide must surely be in the hundreds of thousands, maybe even a million or more.

We know that on AMD OcUK is no.1 in Northern Europe / UK and by a considerable margin, we smashed it out the park and are the biggest reseller and have most market share on 9070 sales in UK/NE we might even be biggest in EMEA.

It is even rumoured we could potentially be one of biggest globally on 9070 as we had the largest amount of stock globally for launch on 9070 XT hence why certain American companies were stealing my cube images and using as their own.

2025 has seen record growth for OcUK on GPU as so far this year we have been no.1 for both AMD and Intel this year for GPU and trading blows for no.1 position in both Q1 and Q2 this year in UK for NVIDIA as well!

In March we shipped over 10,000 GPUs alone, massive numbers for us needless to say we’re very happy and proud of this achievement and of course thank you to the customers who are buying from us as we’re gaining market share.

Wow - just wow. When Nvidia hit 90% I thought this would be the limit. To increase to 92% is just huge.

I hope AMD doesn't stop developing mid range cards. They stopped developing high end already (as they didn't sell well) - though this 92% figure must mean their mid range is also threatened.

Perhaps they'll just make budget cards going forward, as in stopping at 9060 cards etc.

Beep boop the bot is posting.

 

[dargla]

Quite a manipulative material by wccftech and tbh, by the op as well

This is an AIB SHIPMENT data in Q1 !

Surely, the cards manufacturers were arming up prior the new launch. Who is selling majority of GPUs - Nvidia, Intel or AMD? So who is providing higher numbers of chips to AIB?


1. 9070/XT were launched on 6/3/25 so the Q1 actually includes 3 weeks (non AIB) . I am not sure, you can even get reliable numbers of global sales re such a short period of time.

2. Q1 was certainly a huge push of already popular Nvidia products prior launching new line, that included pc/laptop manufacturers. AMD was clearing their stock earlier, all the good prices for 6700, 7700,7800,7900 were gone. Nvidia, as a monopolist, may have more stock so pushed more.

3. The launch of 5090/5080 was at the end of January. Everything was sold out on the spot, far too awaited by enthusiasts, businesses and scalpers. AIBs certainly took everything Nvidia were able/interested in delivering.

4. I am not sure about the steam hardware survey, I would like to see data of its all users, not 'some' selected periodically. I was never asked to allow for it when I had Vega or since I have got the 9070, and I was requested the data 3 times, when I had RTX 3070. Something isn't right and I am not the only one noticing it.

5. Where JP got their data from?

6. Is Wccftech see what I see? Because the comments are not always matching the JP charts. I see overall numbers not a concern for AMD or Intel re mktsh, perhaps market trends are problematic.

NVIDIA Dominates AIB GPU Market With 92% Share In Q1 2025, AMD Drops To 8% & Intel To 0%

NVIDIA is starting 2025 strong with a 92% market share in the AIB GPU market, whereas the competition is down to single digits.

wccftech.com

I guess AMD set RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT prices far too high for high end mainstream and both RX 9060 and RX 9060 XT performance was disappointed and underwhelmed. RTX 5070 probably has largest marketshare at sweetspot £500 start price that was much better value last month with free DOOM: The Dark Ages bundle worth £100 than most expensive Asus Radeon RX 9060 XT TUF with very poor perfomance for £400.

9060 XT released yesterday so that's not going to have any effect yet.

But I guess this just shows the mind share is too strong and idiots will be idiots. One of the worst GPU launches in history and Nvidia still gain market share.

Yes, clearly. The only way to NOT be an idiot is to buy AMD instead of Nvidia. Clearly.

/s just in case, cause who knows these days, so hard with so many …. ‘idiots’

The monopoly gained market share TO AIBs in Q1 prior new launch, what a surprise . Sensationalism at its best.

 

[muon]

So much denial. Q2 will be the same. I don't get what is achieved living in denial of what is happening.

JPR is fake...
Steam Hardware Survey is fake...

It couldn't be that AMD missed an open goal. Those supposedly launch day "record" sales are a rounding error for nvidia.

This is very odd, every one who cared to report on AMD GPU sales reported massive marketshare gains for the 9070 series.

Along comes JPR and reports: actually no AMD didn't sell anything and with that had the biggest quarterly marketshare decline in history.

JPR have just topped my list of fake news, not because they are lying but because they are counting all the cards Nvidia are diverting to AI customers, those are not being sold retail and makes up by far the largest percentage of those GPU's, this BTW i think is at the request of Nvidia as they don't want to appear like they are losing market share, which in retail they are...

Fake news.... propaganda mouthpiece for Nvidia, i mean for the first few months Nvidia didn't have any 50 series cards in retail stores to sell, ffs....

It's interesting.

Thing is, though, although it may be the most successful based on % of market, I wonder how much the market has shrunk? Maybe it's just the forum posters who complain about NVIDIA and refuse to buy! I often wonder that about gamers too. The forum goers whine about stuff, but the developers still sell millions of copies.

GPU sales are down year on year:

Q1’25 PC GPU shipments decreased by -12.0% from last quarter; quarter following seasonality but still down from historical average

Data center GPUs showed impressive growth of 9.6%.

But reading those figures,hints at AI sales propping up things.

Your post makes no sense. The 9070 cards were extremely well-reviewed and sold as well as an AMD card realistically can. You both acknowledge that it was a huge success for AMD and their best-selling GPU launch ever, but also accuse them of "missing an open goal". How can both of those things be true? AMD can't affect what Nvidia are doing or force people to stop buying their products. Explain how you think AMD could realistically have done more, without verging into ludicrous territory like suggesting the 9070 XT should have launched at £150 or something.
