While NVIDIA and AMD have been competitors for years upon years, with each graphics card manufacturer releasing flagship products at critical times to boost their respective market share, it looks like NVIDIA is dominating the arena quite heavily. According to a graph compiled by Beyond3D’s member "dbz," NVIDIA currently controls 76 percent of the GPU market with AMD holding only 24 percent. The graph, which is compiled from aggregated quarterly reports, mainly from Mercury Research with fillers from JPR, effectively shows that at present time three out of four gamers purchase an NVIDIA GPU.

With the upcoming release of the Radeon R9 390X by AMD and the GeForce GTX 980 Ti by NVIDIA, it will be interesting to see if AMD can begin to gain additional control of the GPU market.
