Nvidia Secures 92% GPU Market Share in Q1 2025
Nvidia (NVDA, Financials) captured a dominant 92% share of the add-in-board GPU market in the first quarter of 2025, extending its lead over rivals Advanced Micro Devices (AMD, Financials) and Intel (INTC, Financials), according to Jon Peddie Research.
Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with NVDA.
Revenue and shipment figures from the PC GPU market show Nvidia expanded its AIB market share by 8.5 percentage points quarter over quarter, while AMD dropped 7.3 percentage points to 8%. Intel fell to 0% after a 1.2-point decline. The total AIB market shipped 9.2 million units in Q1.
The companys growth was driven by the launch of its RTX 50 series GPUs, while AMDs RDNA 4 launch came later in the quarter. Intels Battlemage B-series failed to move the needle, per the data. In the overall PC GPU spaceincluding integrated graphicsNvidia also gained 3.6 percentage points, outperforming AMD and Intel, who posted respective declines of 1.6 and 2.1 points.
Demand from gamers remains concentrated on the RTX 3060 and 4060, according to Steams May 2025 hardware survey, though the new 5060 Ti has started to appear with a 0.21% share.
The strength in discrete GPUs contrasts with a broader slowdown in the desktop CPU market, which shrank by 14.5% year over year and 20.6% quarter over quarter. However, data center GPU shipments rose 9.6%, reflecting ongoing AI-driven demand.
The discrete GPU market is expected to face a -10.3% CAGR through 2028, with Jon Peddie Research projecting an installed base of 130 million units by the end of the forecast period. By 2028, PC GPUs are expected to total 2.8 billion units, with dedicated GPUs reaching 15% penetration.

Nvidia (NVDA) Rival Huawei Is Struggling to Win Over Customers despite Export Rules
Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang has repeatedly warned about the growing competition from China's Huawei in the AI chip market. But so far, Huawei is struggling to convince China's biggest tech companies to adopt its chips, according to The Information. Indeed, although ByteDance, Alibaba (BABA), and Tencent (TCEHY) are testing Huawei's chips, they haven't placed any large orders yet. This is because the firms still prefer Nvidia's products, despite U.S. export restrictions. While Huawei has sold chips to state-owned companies and local governments, it has yet to make major gains with top private tech firms. Confident Investing Starts Here: One major reason why big Chinese tech firms are hesitant to make the switch is that their data centers and engineering teams are built around Nvidia's CUDA software. Moving to Huawei's ecosystem would require rewriting code, retraining staff, and losing access to tools that have been developed over the past 15 years. Testing has also revealed some problems: Huawei's latest AI chip, the Ascend 910C, often overheats, and its Compute Architecture for Neural Networks software lacks many of CUDA's features. Additionally, Chinese tech firms compete with Huawei in cloud computing, which makes them more cautious about adopting a rival's hardware. It also doesn't help that U.S. warnings about penalties for using Huawei's advanced AI chips have added further risk. In fact, after one such warning, a Chinese data center canceled a planned order of Huawei chips. Nevertheless, Huang continues to monitor Huawei's progress closely. What Is a Good Price for NVDA? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Strong Buy consensus rating on NVDA stock based on 35 Buys, four Holds, and one Sell assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. Furthermore, the average NVDA price target of $172.36 per share implies 21% upside potential.

Your iPhone might not get iOS 26 – here are the models affected
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Quick Summary iOS 26 is coming as part of WWDC – but your iPhone may not be supported. And it's not just the phones being affected, either. With WWDC taking place next week, all eyes will be firmly on Apple as it debuts a range of new products and services. The show is normally used to showcase its next generation of software and operating systems for various devices. Naturally, the new iPhone operating system is set to be one of the most popular. With more and more people using one variant or another, there will be millions waiting to see what's on offer. Still, while some are excited about the new features coming to their handset, others will be waiting with baited breath to see if their device is still supported. Apple often makes certain models obsolete with new OS releases, though there's no real rhyme or reason to it. Now, a new report suggests that three iPhones could miss out on the iOS 26 software. Those are the iPhone XS, the iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XR. Those handsets were released back in 2018, so it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. It's not just the iPhone range which looks set to lose some supported devices, either. The iPad range is also trimming some fat – though it's only the 7th Gen iPad expected to go there. MacOS 26 is rumoured to involve the most casualties, with the 2020 Intel-powered MacBook Air models, 2018 MacBook Pro's, the 2018 Mac Mini and the 2017 iMac Pro all set to face the chopping block. Three of those four shouldn't come as much surprise, but the inclusion of the Intel-powered 2020 MacBook Air models will likely raise some eyebrows. Of course, just because a device is supported also doesn't guarantee it will be feature-filled. We've already seen a number of iPhones launched in the not-too-distant past which support the broader iOS, but can't get features like Apple Intelligence. Still, for those who have kept their devices up to date, this should provide an interesting suite of options.

'(Build) The Biggest, Baddest CPU': Intel Stock (NASDAQ:INTC) Notches up Despite Ironic Twist
This might have been the unkindest cut that chip stock Intel (INTC) could have received. Sure, yesterday and its potential loss of CHIPS Act funding was a low blow, no mistake there, but it only got worse as new reports revealed that several Intel staffers were leaving Intel to do exactly what Intel would have needed them to do: build the 'biggest, baddest CPU' around. Shareholders took the news well, though, and sent shares up fractionally in Friday afternoon's trading. Confident Investing Starts Here: Four of Intel's biggest names in research—who together had a combined experience of almost a century at Intel—departed the company in a plan to build a totally new kind of microprocessor. They will be using a kind of architecture that is completely different from Intel's, reports note, and in the process, hopefully show up their former bosses in the process. The four started their own company, called AheadComputing, and is working on an open style of architecture known as Reduced Instruction Set Computer – V, or RISC-V. The result, AheadComputing hopes, will be a processor that does fewer things than the current processor concept, but does this comparative handful of things better than the current processor does them. Essentially, reports note, the four are risking that AheadComputing—a vastly smaller company—will be able to move faster and better than Intel. Given Intel's new 'risk-averse' nature that we discovered yesterday with the 50% gross profit concept, they may not be wrong. But what has Intel missed out on in the process? Roadmapping an Uncertain Future But life goes on at Intel, reports note, and word notes that the Intel Foundry Direct Connect 2025 event is showing off its roadmaps and its partnerships. Intel Foundry, of course, is the chip manufacturing portion of Intel, and the one which has perhaps come under the most fire of late. But Intel looks to start delivering under the 18A process this year, and that should go a long way toward re-establishing Intel's dominance as a chip maker. Naturally, it is unclear as yet how much capacity 18A will have overall, and how much of that capacity can go to making other companies' chips. Early word suggests that everything is on schedule, so that will, at least, not be a problem. And with 14A and 14A-E waiting in the wings, it is entirely possible that Intel may be able to keep the streak going and come out ahead in the end. Is Intel a Buy, Hold or Sell? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Hold consensus rating on INTC stock based on two Buys, 25 Holds and four Sells assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 34.97% loss in its share price over the past year, the average INTC price target of $21.29 per share implies 5.63% upside potential.
