As is customary every month, Valve shares the results of its now traditional surveys on the most popular hardware on PC among Steam users, yielding more than interesting results if we take into account the recent presentation of the new generation of graphics cards with the powerful RTX 30 Series. So much so, that the most common configuration among Steam gamers features the GTX 1060 as the most popular GPU, while the most popular resolution is 1080p.

Sticking with GPUs, no other model exceeds 7% individually, with the latest RTX 20 series accounting for 10% of the market among all its models. The most popular graphics of the RTX 20 series is the RTX 2060 with almost 3%.
