The RTX 3060 has long been the most popular GPU on Steam until it was replaced by the RTX 4060 a few months ago.Now, just a few months later, it has been replaced by the RTX 4060 mobile version.

According to a September hardware survey by Steam, the RTX 4060 laptop GPU has surpassed the desktop version of the RTX 4060 to become the most popular GPU.This is the first time in a long time that mobile graphics cards surpass full-size graphics cards.

The second is the RTX 3060. So far, the RTX 3060 has more than 4 years of history, but it still performs strongly, mainly because its video memory is 12GB, while subsequent products do not.

While 8GB of video memory is now considered unsuitable for gaming, it is still very popular on Steam.Because the RTX 4060 is an 8GB GPU.The main reason for the popularity of the RTX 4060 is that the GPU price of the new laptop is not very cost-effective.Even the latest RTX 5070 laptop comes with 8GB of video memory, which seems meaningless for a device that costs far more than $1,000, while the RTX 4060 laptop is affordable and very cost-effective.

In addition, AMD now accounts for a considerable CPU market share.Although Intel still maintains its lead, the Red Team currently accounts for more than 40% of Steam users, a record high, and Intel faces severe challenges.
