Back in August, we informed you about the AMD/NVIDIA market share for Q2 2015. As we said back then, NVIDIA has been dominating the discrete GPU market. And a couple of days ago, Jon Peddie Research shared its latest data for Q3 2015, in which AMD has seen an increase of 0.8% in the discrete GPU market.

 

 

NVIDIA is still dominating the charts with a really healthy 81.1%, followed by AMD with 18.8%. And while AMD has a momentum given these latest stats, it will take a lot to challenge NVIDIA.

 

 

Seems like the new Fury series did their job, with the ever so slightly more powerful 390 vs the 970, AMD has managed to claw back a small 0.8%.  Nothing super great, but hope there's more to come and we get cheaper GPUs as a result of competition!

Not really surprising because everyone second gpu recommendation on this forum is a 390

[Chasem121]

That's good to hear, hopefully it will eventually stabilize at 50/50

im hoping AMD starts being nVidia so nvidia pulls their shit together and makes a good gpu for the price

Considering that the 900 series is more than a year old, that's to be expected.

The 970 launched in September of 2014.

The r9 390 launched in June of 2015.

The rebadges with better vRAM in some cases you mean.

[don_svetlio]

Hopefully we go back to 60/40 splits

Rebadg or no it still beats a 970

Lol, only at 1440p and 4K just like the 290 and 290X (still don't get why Nvidia insists on just using colour compression for their high end cards-they know how to make a high bandwidth bus).

If JayZ - the biggest Nvidia fan says the 390 is better - it's just better. You're going to have to accept this and move on

Its literally an overclocked R9 290 with more vRAM and access to a better version of the driver.

So what? It's still better. What is your point? You're grasping at smoke, man...

who cares its cheaper and better than a 970....

[Samfisher]

For many places, a 970 is actually cheaper by a bit.

I'm not grasping at anything-I'm looking at buying a Sapphire or XFX 390/390X when I manage to sell my GTX 970.

where? Not in the rrp

[brownninja97]

clearly time to jump ship from nvidia. no i cant say that with a serious face.

That does not justify this: "Lol, only at 1440p and 4K just like the 290 and 290X (still don't get why Nvidia insists on just using colour compression for their high end cards-they know how to make a high bandwidth bus)."

As if anything ever goes for strictly RRP prices only..

Nothing to justify-I can count on 1 hand the games that a 290/390 performs better at 1080p.

thats what we judge by its like judging second hand cards....

You have several thousand fingers?
