But graphics card sales are still in the toilet compared to a year ago.
When was the last time AMD's graphics subdivision sold more graphics cards than Nvidia? According to data from industry analysts, the answer is way back in 2005 when the company was called ATI and had yet to be acquired by AMD. Ouch.shows AMD regaining some market share from Nvidia. Don't get too excited. The new figures put AMD at 17.5% of overall desktop graphics card market share for the second quarter of 2023.
That's up from just 12% for the first quarter of the year. Wind the clock back to Q2 of 2022 and AMD was on 20%. So it's still behind its modest performance relative to Nvidia one year ago. But AMD has also improved significantly from the all-time low of just a 10% share in the third quarter of last year.
Overall, desktop graphics cards shipments were up by 2% this quarter versus the first quarter of the year at 6.44 million. However, they were still down by a pretty horrendous 38% versus the same quarter in 2022. But if you want some real pain, how about AMD's laptop market share? AMD had just 2.7% of the mobile market for discrete GPUs, with Nvidia on a ridiculous 94%. Even Intel managed 3.2%, which just goes to show how bad things are for AMD in laptops.Of course, these are all figures for discrete GPUs. AMD does much better in laptops when you factor in integrated GPUs or iGPUs. And there, AMD is really the only game in town for iGPUs that are worthy of, well, gaming.
