GeForce RTX 3060 is now Steam's most popular graphics card
The GeForce RTX 3060 has officially overtaken the venerable GTX 1060 as Steam's most popular graphics card. This means gamers with older, non-RT cards will likely need to upgrade soon.
Early April marked an historic event: the GeForce GTX 1060 officially ceased to be the world's most popular graphics card, ceding its leadership to its successor, the GeForce RTX 3060.
⤢ ВІДКРИТИValve published its March Steam hardware survey statistics, revealing that the RTX 3060 had grown its presence in PC gamers' rigs to 10%.
⤢ ВІДКРИТИThis event will directly impact the immediate future of the gaming industry. For the first time, a ray-tracing-capable graphics card has become the most popular in a gaming store of Steam's scale. Consequently, developers will have to pay increasing attention to this new technology. As a result, gamers with still-relevant cards (like the GTX 1080 Ti and similar) but without ray tracing support will have no choice but to upgrade to an RT-enabled GPU.
