AMD's RX 6600 is the most popular Red Team GPU among Steam gamers, by a whisker — but no Radeon card makes the top 30 list (www.tomshardware.com)

I would argue that this is effect partially due to the finer segmentation of amd gpu models in each generation. The wider the spread, the harder it is for an individual model to get a high rank.

Also amd only recently started making competitive gpus and there are lots of 900/1000 gen nvidia cards still in use.

But not having a single model in the top 30 Stream rankings.... That's really rough.

I guess yeah. Looking at the fact that some intel models made it in tho, it looks like laptops and prebuilts are a huge part of this ranking.

I think if you were to just look at direct sales for dedicated gpus, amd would look better.
