JPR: Nvidia gained record all time high 92% AIB Q1 2025 marketshare

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! :eek:

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.

Surely the AMD cards weren't really in this data give the late date for them launching (middle march wasn't it?)

It is shipments rather than sales. But yes won't be a full period. However, even a partial period shouldn't move things in the wrong direction.

IDK how JPR measure it, shipments or sales, either way Q1 starts Jan 1 and ends Match 31, so on sale March 6 they should be in the data....

They measure shipments, as sales are very difficult to track. You don't know how many are sitting on shelves.

You are right they should at least have all the shipments that sold in March.

This would actually explain the weirdness, i have no doubt Nvidia are shipping more GPU's than ever, including vs AMD, AI boom that Nvidia as near as makes no difference only they benefit from, however the vast majority don't go to "PC's" unless that is China are buying them in bulk as AIB cards for PC's but are actually for AI training farms to get around the US sanctions on actual AI cards, the thing is IMO there is no way this could happen unless they are getting cooperation from Nvidia in that, which is a whole can of worms for them.....

Either way that makes JPR's reporting complete nonsense.

David does tech stuff had an interesting video the other day about the state of cheap gaming laptops. It was a 2050 (4gb), 3050 (4gb), 4060 (8gb) comparison, nvidia still produce the 2050/3050 to help the upsell to the 4060. Not a good situation for cheap gaming latops.

I used to own a gaming laptop many years ago with a Radeon 7970m, absolute beast, 40% cheaper than the NVIDIA equivalent.

Why aren't AMD in this space? All we get are APUs, good for handhelds and ultralights/tablets, but not much else.
 
Just shows how out of touch all the pc hardware reviewers are. They say Nvidia bad, recommend AMD all the time, yet at the end of the day gamers want the best and so they want and buy more Nvidia cards. AMD and intel have a loud minority following, but just can't complete in the real world when it comes to actual sales and market share.

All the reviewers use Nvidia cards for editing anyway. So they are hypocritical.

In the minds of OEM's people don't buy gaming laptop's unless they have a green sticker on them, they are not wrong....

Reviewers to be fair got tricked with a fake MSRP.

AMD cards aren't selling in larger numbers because of the inflated price. AMD may also not have the production capacity (which is their mistake, hence my previous open goal comment) and so happy to leave prices high.

I think for measuring the PC gaming space, especially for those of us who buy GPU's to put in our PC's JPR can..... no should be ignored, they are basically measuring all shipments for every segment and calling it "PC" that's where i think people are getting hung up, a GPU sitting in an air-conditioned warehouse crunching numbers along with 20,000 other identical GPU's doing the same thing is not a "PC", to JPR it is, along with the 20,000 others sitting next to it and the millions of others in similar warehouses.

You've come up with that. Do you have evidence that most of consumer Blackwell is going into AI?

This is a rationalisation as to why "AMD is the best".

What about Steam Hardware Survey corroborating these numbers? Or is there some other rationalisation there as well.

Also is AI suddenly more important this quarter versus previous quarters? If anything that bubble has burst from its peak.

If you want a conversion with me don't front load your questions with crap like....

This is obviously not in good faith and doesn't warrant a response.

Well it very much sounds like cope based on no quantitative evidence.

Doesn't even make sense. Why suddenly this quarter. Is AI new?

Indeed the steam hardware survey, various other sources always have Nvidia as 90%+ of the cards actually being used in real pcs by real gamers.
 
is there any surprise, yet folk complain about prices and lack of vram, yet still line up to buy, is it any wonder NVidia will keep pushing up prices and limiting vram when they know they can sell them gpus by the bucket load, you cant fault them mind, fleece as much cash as poss, next they be selling 300 quid 8gb gpus in 2025, oh wait;)

ps didnt mention red team 8gb as a green thread:p
 
@muon

These conversations always devolve in to irrational arguments because there is always one who chooses to sling mud rather than address my reasoning, its getting very tiresome.

If you can't debate me without the cheap shots please leave the thread. Or better yet try to engage with me on the same level.

One of the posters in this thread paid £1100+ for an RTX3080,so no wonder Nvidia doesn't care! :cry:

The Pandemic showed Nvidia and AMD card prices were not "high enough" - so prices will get higher and higher.
