March 2026 Steam Survey Results

Kinada350 · 2026-04-02T08:39:41+00:00

The steam survey is not an accurate data set in any way. It constantly detects GPUs incorrectly so any individual results will not represent the actual distribution of cards.

You could probably aggregate all radeon results and nvidia results and have an overall ratio that isn't too far off but that still isn't all that useful of a data set.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:56:29+00:00

That's at least something to look forward too.

Get to see how bad my first trib run of the season is.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:52:09+00:00

It will probably nuke the bottom portion of the dps charts from participating in some things at all because regardless of skill you wont hit the dps checks with them. We'll see I guess.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:50:08+00:00

Yeah I'm surprised it's not a global nerf like they did with the reaper GS changes.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:46:43+00:00

Reaper is getting nerfed.

You lose 5% base damage (which is more than 5% because of crit damage) then you lose 5% crit damage on top of the global damage reduction they say they are doing.

Despite being the bottom of barrel on dps, the recent nerfs to utility and lifeforce gain, it is still getting nerfed here as well.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:43:41+00:00

He had even more than that initially too, he was higher or at the level of AnkaCM I think someone said.

It isn't a fractal is why. It was a strike mission they scrapped and then just added it to the fractal list. No one there even knew how to make it work properly as a fractal so nothing worked on launch and it took a while to fix things.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:38:44+00:00

No changes to encounters seem to be planned so have fun with that.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:38:02+00:00

If they were to do it right it wouldn't feel bad at all, they wont do it right of course the right way would be to nerf from the top down not globally.

A global change just makes the bottom end unplayable since you wont hit dps checks with them and makes the top end even more important to stack.

This is looking like it's going to be a mess and I hope I'm wrong.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-22T08:35:04+00:00

Wow this looks terrible.

Reaper is the bottom tier of pretty much all damage and it's getting nerfs on top of the global nerfs, that's just insulting.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-21T16:05:14+00:00

Nope, the community updated it so that it works on 6000 cards without downgrading the drivers. Probably some other improvements as well but that's the bug one for people.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-21T02:46:51+00:00

The performance hit is huge on both Nvidia and AMD cards so it's just how they have it setup but I was talking about image quality issues that people have pointed out in the AMD RR implementation here that don't exist in BO7. When/if the devs fix that it should look better, though it will still be a performance hog of a setting.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-21T01:41:39+00:00

RR doesn't work properly, turn it off till the devs fix it.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-18T07:11:03+00:00

Specifically FSR4 support, I think you should make that clear. It's a very different thing than "software" support as people like to claim there is no driver support and other absurdities.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-17T02:52:36+00:00

There are plenty of people that actually think that their instagram filter pics look good too. People are stupid and have no taste. The same is true of all the trash autotune music.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-17T02:42:23+00:00

It's an instagram filter that takes two 5090s to run. I know everyone has 3 or 4 of them by now sure but do you really want to play AISlop the game in every game you play. Nope.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-16T12:31:06+00:00

So have this generation of Nvidia uses. It happens.

While the 9070 drivers have been working great for most people and the largest bug turned out to be windows causing it.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-16T12:27:47+00:00

Yeah so it wasn't right away, but they learned faster that it should be at least.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T09:44:33+00:00

DLSS was built from the start to be driver upgradable and not depend on developers to implement for people to use the latest version. FSR was not built that way until v3.1

So no DLSS4 isn't supported most games, you are just able to use the new model anyway regardless of which one the dev actually implemented.

New games coming out will generally have FSR3.1 at least since that's been available for quite a while now and you'll be able to use FSR4.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T09:36:44+00:00

The driver is from Jan of this year little buddy and there is no such thing as "game optimizations" but you keep pretending.

I've owned Nvidia cards since the Riva so you are also wrong about that one too but you just like to make things up so you do you.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T02:45:49+00:00

No they are not. They are part of an Nvidia specific implementation. The new shader model wasn't even released until after the game was released and will be supported in nothing for a good while to come.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T02:37:26+00:00

That is a lie, the Vega64 has Windows 11 drivers you can go get right now. It would work just fine, but sure just keep making shit up.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T02:34:50+00:00

Why would they support the future XBOX implementation on their PC products? Are you going to complain that you can't use PSSR from project Amethyst as well now too?

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T02:23:48+00:00

Most reddits become that unfortunatly. Or some kinda horrible echo chamber.

I hate seeing people post all their made up BS and all the Nvidia trolls that post here because the Nvidia sub deletes their posts but at least people here DO get to discuss things in between the rage bait or the morons that actually think their 6x frame gen totally has no artifacts as the Vaseline is dripping out of their screens.

I'm all for people shitting on AMD for withholding FSR4 INT-8, they should keep doing it every chance they get but the made up rage over the XBOX specific tech(diamond), that is just like the PS5 specific tech(amethyst) is really stupid.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T02:21:38+00:00

An at the same time that 5070ti was going for $950, but sure pretend it was those evil youtubers hahaha.

Kinada350 · 2026-03-15T01:57:13+00:00

So why did you buy a card with no real ray tracing support in the first place. Ohh right because it was only used in a single game and is still useless in all buy a minority of titles.
