NVIDIA gains market share in Q3

The folks at Jon Peddie Research have compiled some graphics hardware shipment figures for the third quarter, and their numbers suggest Nvidia has reclaimed some market share from AMD. At the same time, Intel saw its piece of the pie grow about two points.

JPR says AMD has attributed its market share decline to "weakened demand and OEMs letting their GPU inventory run down to avoid being stuck with leftover processors." Some of AMD's customers switched to Nvidia products "due to real and perceived shortages in supply," the research firm adds.
