Steam Linux Usage Was At 0.74% For July
With a new month comes the latest numbers from Valve's controversial Steam Survey.
For July 2017, the reported Linux market-share was at 0.74%, or an increase of 0.02% from the month prior. As a reminder, in June is when the market-share declined 0.09% to 0.72%.
So it's a small bump-up from June. Coincidentally, last year for July was also a 0.02% boost but at that point was at 0.82%. So year-over-year we are down 0.08%, but keep in mind the overall Valve market-share grew so on a overall number of Linux gamers basis is likely higher this year. Likewise, in July of 2015 we were at close to 0.9%.
Last month meanwhile macOS had a 3.06% market and Windows was in at 96.12%.
For last month the number of AMD CPUs reported by Steam Linux gamers went up 0.65% to 18.12%, possibly due to Ryzen customers. The most popular discrete graphics card for Linux gamers remains the GeForce GTX 970 followed by the GTX 1060.
