Windows 11 s on Steam are up 1.25% from February, and now for 16.84% of all s. Windows 10 is still the dominant OS for Steam s with a commanding 74.69%, though it dropped a percentage point since February.
For some historical context, 36.97% of Steam s were using Windows 10 seven months after its launch back in 2016. That's more than half the adoption rate from folks going from Windows 7 to Windows 10 then Windows 10 to Windows 11.
In case you're wondering how many Linux and MacOS s are hanging around: as of March, total MacOS s sit around 2.43% and Linux remains at a steady 1%.
On the graphics card front, Nvidia GPUs make up 77.13% of what Steam s are playing on, with AMD in second place with 14.15% and Intel in third at 8.52%. The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 is the most commonly used GPU among Steam s at 8.18%, while our favorite GPU, the RTX 3080, is only being used by 1.24% of folks on Steam.
Our recommendation was to wait to DirectStorage in action.
