OK, there are some caveats here. Valve's Steam hardware survey is prone to certain distortions, the particulars of which we'll come to. But the latest figures for August 2025 are still intriguing, including Nvidia's RTX 5070 taking top spot among current-gen GPU hardware while AMD's RDNA 4 cards don't appear. At all.
That the RTX 5070 is quite popular isn't a huge surprise, though we're only talking about popularity among current-gen hardware here—it's in 20th place overall. But the fact that it's more popular than, say, the RTX 5060 or 5060 Ti is unusual. The top seven slots overall are filled by older 50 and 60-series Nvidia GPUs. The first 70-series card of any kind is the RTX 3070 in position eight in the rankings.
