Barely 6% of Steam users play above 1080p

With a fresh generation of graphics cards promising great performance at absurd resolutions, you might think that PC gamers are largely ready to move beyond 1080p. But according to the latest Steam Hardware Survey, 1440p and 4K are the domain of only a tiny fraction of players - the vast majority play at 1080p, and many more play at even less than that. 1920 x 1080 is the primary display resolution for over 62% of Steam users. That’s not surprising on its own, but over 30% game at even lower pixel counts. The second most popular resolution is the budget laptop-friendly 1366 x 768, accounting for over 13% of users. That percentage dwarfs even 2560 x 1440, which has a share just under 4%. Intensely demanding 4K resolutions fair even worse, at barely over 1%. Ultra-wide resolutions, including 2560 x 1080 and 3440 x 1440 have less than 1% each. Somehow, a tiny fraction of players - little more than half a percent - are still gaming at 1024 x 768. (They’re likely happy about the relatively recent Windows XP Steam compatibility fixes.)
