AMD Q2 '13 results above expectations.

That's not a game bundle. You can be pretty sure that BF4 will be the next one with the new cards.

Nvidia's cards were much newer. However, AMD was still up in discrete desktop GPU in Q1, even though they haven't released anything of note in over a year. Most of AMD's graphics loss has been on mobile which has cratered.

Source? Because JRP data mentions strong growth in notebooks, not in desktops. All you have to show is Rory claiming that 7000 series is selling good, but not even he mentions a share gain.

Nvidia has exited the integrated graphics chipset segments and it is shifting its focus to discrete GPUs. The company suffered a desktop discrete market share loss (4.3% quarter-to-quarter), and had a 5% gain in notebook discrete GPUs.

I suppose it could have been Matrox or SIS taking Nvidia's share instead of AMD though. :hmm:

Ha? When nVidia is supply constraint AMD will automatically gain because there are less GPUs shipped by both companies and the market is going to AMD for GPU supply.

Here is Q1 2013: http://jonpeddie.com/press-releases/details/add-in-board-market-up-in-q1-amd-gains-market-share/

nVidia is up 2,4pps from last year.

So when Nvidia has 3-6 month old cards vs AMD's 9-12 month old cards, Nvidia will gain market share? Well isn't that a surprise!

You can call it whatever you want, supply constrained, bad yields or just late to the party (Nvidia seems awfully good at most of these I've noticed). The facts are in total opposition to mrmt's theory. AMD gained market share and sold plenty of 7970's.

Nope, indeed, you are correct.

Interesting analysis

Evidently it compares AMD results to Intel results, but I cannot quote the article because I am not allowed

Things may be looking up for AMD.

good find.

I found it mostly depressing that tens of millions of dollars are being talked about. It's numbers a startup would be embarrassed to share.
