AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT becomes company’s top discrete GPU on Steam

According to the August Steam Hardware Survey, AMD’s Radeon RX 9070 XT has now become the company’s most widely‑used discrete GPU on Steam. The card holds a 1.46% share among surveyed systems, placing it 24th overall — just ahead of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3080 and directly behind the GeForce GTX 1660 Super.

Valve’s latest figures (via VideoCardz) show steady month‑to‑month growth for the RX 9070 XT, rising from 1.33% in May to 1.35% in June, 1.40% in July and 1.46% in August. AMD’s next RDNA 4 entry on the list is the Radeon RX 9060 XT at 0.80%.

Nvidia continues to dominate the upper portion of the chart with its current GeForce RTX 50‑series lineup. The GeForce RTX 5070 sits in third place overall at 3.77%, followed by the RTX 5060 at 3.16% and the RTX 5060 Ti at 2.55%. Even the higher‑end RTX 5080 maintains a 1.71% share.

Intel’s results remain unchanged, with integrated GPUs making up the bulk of its presence. Intel Iris Xe graphics is the most common at 1.74%, while dedicated Arc GPUs still do not appear in the survey.

KitGuru Says: The Radeon RX 9070 XT continues to climb, but Nvidia’s RTX 50‑series cards still hold a clear lead across the Steam user base.
