Nvidia Crushes AMD: GeForce Now Holds 96% of Graphics Card Market
Table of Contents
September 7, 2025 – The graphics card market is experiencing a dramatic shift in power, with Nvidia’s GeForce series now controlling an unprecedented 96% of sales, according to recent data reported by Živě.cz. This marks a meaningful blow to AMD and underscores Nvidia’s current dominance in the PC gaming and professional visualization sectors.
The surge in GeForce market share isn’t simply due to brand recognition. Industry observers point to significant performance differences, particularly in demanding computational tasks. While AMD’s Ryzen 9 processors are often touted for their core count, their architecture appears to struggle with certain workloads. one commentator noted that the computational load within Ryzen 9 chips can become fragmented, bouncing between processing fibers and dramatically increasing calculation times.This is particularly noticeable when compared to older Intel Core ultra processors like the W-1290p.
The issue isn’t simply one of raw processing power.Effective parallelization – the ability to divide a task into smaller parts and process them simultaneously – is crucial for performance. However,the architecture of current Ryzen processors appears to hinder this process. The ability to initiate follow-up calculations *before* previous results are known is limited, creating bottlenecks and slowing down overall processing speed. For conversions tied to ongoing changes, this can translate to significant delays – possibly hours per day, adding up to approximately 250 hours per year.
Beyond Hardware: Potential for External Interference
The discussion extends beyond the processors themselves. Concerns have been raised about the potential for external factors to impact performance. Questions have been posed regarding the possibility of deliberate manipulation through serial interfaces or bus configurations, highlighting the complexity of optimizing system performance.
the importance of Request-Specific Optimization
The core message remains clear: CPU selection should be driven by the intended application, not simply by marketing claims. Ancient examples demonstrate this principle. During the era of Intel’s Sandy Bridge dominance,AMD’s Piledriver architecture (found in the 990FX platform) and Opteron 4100 (Lisboa) offered compelling performance in specific disciplines,even if these advantages weren’t widely recognized.
While AMD may excel in certain niche areas, the current landscape overwhelmingly favors Nvidia’s GeForce cards. As one observer succinctly put it, “You can try to brandish 9 out of 10… But that’s about all, Ergo.”
