Rebranding works?
Nah..
In my opinion it was people buying cheaper pcs than before, so they got integrated intel gpus instead of a real gpu. The bitter truth is, dedicated graphicscards only have a tiny marketshare to start with.

Me for one. Didn't have a choice with my notebook.Quote:

nvidia sold more, so what?
nvidia's shareholders couldn't gives a rat's *** if they sold more -- nvidia hase terrible profit margins, if you could call them profit margins, due to poor processes.
a company can't continue if they aren't producing cash, selling products at net loss doesn't work... anyone remember when nvidia's card-partners(EVGA, XFX, etc) were complaining if they cut the prices much more they wouldn't be making any money on them.
units sold dropped from ~95million in q1 2008 to ~74million in q1 2009... interesting... thats quite a decline... 20% pretty much
i dont think nvidia gained market share by rebranding their parts, its much more likely that dropping the prices on their gt200 and g92 parts made this possible, especially the 260.
what we dont see in this report is what segments each of them is serving and how much money they make with it, and thats what matters a whole lot more than market share... im looking forward to segment and profit results, unfortunately intel doesnt share any infos about their graphics division afaik...
intel may have 50% of the market but thats igp, which is basically 2d graphics and they are not exactly making a lot of money with those...
Thread title sucks and is misleading, good job shintai :down:
No sense fussing boys. Just wait for discrete numbers.
That's the problem. Where is that information?Quote:

These ARE discrete numbers ... :rofl: and TITLE is great trap for Atiboys and working!
Really? So intel has claimed an almost 50% market share in discrete GPUs for Larrabee before they have even started production, or better yet before any performance numbers are revealed? Amazing!:clap:Quote:

My advise, Focus on the core business: GAMES.

Good that Apple didn't listen to your advice and incorporated GF9400 instead of yours GMA "graphics"...
Anyone who counts Intel as graphics vendor is plain stupid. Isn't it odd that biggest chipset maker also sels the most "GPU's" ?
Considering they push their stuff along their chipsets. If ATI was doing that, their share would be just as inflated as Intel's.
I'll start counting Intel as something that counts when i see a working end product based on Larrabee. Until then, Intel doesn't exist in the GFX market for me.
shintai and OBR are Intel and nvidia noobs :down::down:
only bad and mistake thread
What's the big deal about the thread title? :shrug:Quote:

According to JPR's Market Watch, the entire market, encompassing add-in boards and integrated GPUs, had a hard time of it. Comparing Q1 2009 to Q1 2008 we see that shipments are down from an estimated 94.88m to 74.87m - a 21.1 per cent drop. In Q1 2008 Intel had a 10-point lead over NVIDIA, with AMD/ATI firmly in third place.
The three big players took a whopping 94 per cent of the market. Bear in mind the table shows quantity rather than revenue, and NVIDIA/ATI's discrete cards can cost up to £400 a pop. Intel does extremely well in the integrated-GPU market, of course, with the majority of business PCs' graphics provided by the chip giant.
Look at the same quarter for 2009 and whilst volume shipments for the trifecta are down, Intel's minor drop enables it to grab almost 50 per cent of the market share - up from 42.7 per cent - at the expense of everyone else, according to JPR. One possible explanation of Intel's volume-related resilience may lie with the company's bundling of motherboard (and graphics) for its Atom processors, found in the majority of netbooks shipping today.
A 20 per cent-plus year-on-year drop may cause sales staff sleepless nights, but there appears to be hope on the horizon. Q1 2009 shipments were higher than Q4 2008. That's surprising because the latter packs in the holiday season. It's the first time in nine years that the first quarter has beaten shipments for the previous year's Q4.
JPR expects the overall shipments to pick-up in Q3 and Q4 of 2009, driven by new architectures, pent-up demand, depleted inventories, and arrival of new operating systems from Microsoft and Apple.
Hey! Shouldn't you be busy making Larabee! :p::cool:Quote:

I am actually amazed at how Nvidia's marketshare has held up so well under the circumstances, I know myself I have written them off for the time being as a graphics card choice, much in the same way I never considered the Phenom I as a viable option.
Right... God forbid they actually try to compete with Intel :p: :rolleyes:Quote:
