Windows 11 finally crushed the seventy percent barrier. Valve dropped its latest hardware survey showing the newer OS powering over seventy-four percent of Steam decks. Windows 10 keeps sliding down to twenty-three point five six percent as support fades away. Linux holds steady at three point six nine percent while macOS sits at two point two one percent. The old guard, like Windows 7, is basically dead, with barely any users left on the platform.
Laptop graphics cards are taking over the top spot. The GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU beat the desktop RTX 3060 to become the most used chip. This shift proves gaming notebooks are eating into traditional desktop territory. Sixteen gigabytes of VRAM is gaining serious traction, too, with nearly a quarter of systems rocking that much memory. Full HD resolution still rules, but fourteen forty is slowly creeping up among enthusiasts.
AMD is closing in on Intel fast. The red team now holds forty-five point nine nine percent of the CPU market compared to Intel's fifty-four point zero one percent. That is a massive fourteen-point gain in just eighteen months, thanks to Ryzen X3D chips. If this pace continues, AMD could overtake Intel by year's end. Sixteen gigabytes of RAM remains the standard for forty-one point five seven percent of gamers as prices stay low.
