Nvidia increased its market share dominance over AMD in the final quarter of 2018, a quarterly report states. The end of last year saw Nvidia launch its high-end RTX Turing 20-series graphics cards, but despite their helping hand in gaining market share over its red corner rivals, overall graphics card shipments were unseasonably down 10.7%. Over $2.8bn worth of graphics cards shipped last quarter, just a portion of the $17bn worth of GPUs shipped throughout 2018 according to market research firm, Jon Peddie Research. However, despite Nvidia’s best efforts with the RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 releases in the run up to Q4, shortly followed by the RTX 2070 in October, the quarter was down. “The fourth quarter is normally flat to up seasonally, “ Dr. John Peddie, president of Jon Peddie Research, says. “However, this quarter we found that AIB shipments decreased from the last quarter by 10.7%, which is which is below the ten-year average of a 2.3% decrease. This has largely been attributed to the hangover of the crypto-mining gold rush.”
