Quick answer
AMD's RDNA 4 GPUs have been spotted for the first time in Steam's Hardware Survey. The RX 9070 XT (1.35%) narrowly trails Nvidia's RTX 5080 (1.52%) in user share, while other RDNA 4 models debut with modest figures.
AMD's RDNA 4 GPUs have made their debut in the May Steam Hardware Survey. The flagship RX 9070 XT secured the 25th spot with a 1.35% user share, trailing Nvidia's RTX 5080 by just 0.17%. Other new models in the lineup, including the RX 9070 and RX 9060 XT, also appeared in the rankings but with significantly lower adoption rates.
Nvidia's RTX 3060 remains the top GPU in Steam with a 4.02% share. The RTX 4060, both mobile and desktop versions, also ranks highly, underscoring the continued popularity of Ada Lovelace architecture. However, AMD faces challenges with misclassified GPUs, as some entries appear as unidentified 'AMD Radeon Graphics,' potentially skewing the data.
The mid-range RX 9060 XT claimed the 39th spot with a 0.72% share, while the base RX 9070 ranked 90th at 0.18%. Notably, the RX 9070 appeared in the survey before other RDNA 4 models, yet its adoption remains minimal. Experts attribute this to the close pricing between the RX 9070 and the flagship RX 9070 XT, reducing demand for the less powerful variant.
