as much as much NVIDIA as AMD insist on offering very high performance GPUs for an extremely prohibitive price, the reality is that most gamers can’t afford them. We have seen it with the RTX 4080 and 4090, but among the favorites of Steam players, the GTX 1060. A long government, which ended this November because of his older sister.
Although today the discourse and importance are taken by the NVIDIA RTX 30 due to its use of DLSS as a differentiating element compared to the competition, its overprice has made it a product that is difficult to achieve. For this reason, reigning the survey of the Steam’s most used hardware there was the GTX 1060, a 2016 GPU that once offered remarkable performance for a low price, but has been surpassed by the GTX 1650.
This family is complicated, and it is that NVIDIA, with a view to replicating the success of the GTX 1060, launched 2 reissues on the market in later years: GTX 1650 and GTX 1660. Although they did not fully gel in the face of a spectacular dominance of the original, It has been this month of November that the GTX 1650 has imposed itself with a percentage of 6.27% of total users from the platform.
the mythical GTX 1060 loses almost 2% of gamers and is placed in a by no means inconsiderable second place, while his older sisters approach him again. In this case, the distance between the RTX 2060 y RTX 3060both in its laptop and desktop versions, are cropped and both stand as imminent threats to a queen who has ruled for 6 years.
Of course, what the new Steam survey makes clear is not only the little interest of the players for extremely high-priced graphics cards, but also the NVIDIA dominance over AMD. We have to go to position 18 in the table to find the red team with a RX 580 that this year has completed five years of life. Even so, the situation on Steam is very little variable, especially in these times, so it is to be expected that this new hegemony will last for a while.
