NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Is Now The Most Popular GPU On Steam
NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card has taken the top spot on Steam Hardware Survey, pushing share far above AMD Radeon GPUs.

The most important thing to note here is the pricing of the card which is also much higher than 1650. This shows that gamers are willing to pay for a higher-end and costly graphics card if it provides value and given just how many RTX 3060s were dumped into the used market and discounted after the crypto crash, this was to be expected. Over the years, we have seen the NVIDIA 70, 60, and 50-tier cards be the most popular solutions on the market. The GeForce GTX 970 was the last 70-series card to take the top spot and that was all the way back in 2016. Since then, cards such as the GTX 1060, RTX 2060, GTX 1650/1660, and now the RTX 3060 have been the most popular options.
Even higher-end cards such as the GeForce RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 show up in the top-10 list. None of AMD's modern-day GPUs show up in the Steam Hardware Survey but NVIDIA's RTX 4090 do show up though they are definitely not going to show up at the top any time soon as they are more recent releases and will take years (like the RTX 30 series) to make their way to the top spot.
