Nvidia GPU shipments up and AMD down in Q4 2013

Despite the perceived decline in the PC games market, graphics cards shipments were up two per cent in Q4 2013.

That’s according to Jon Peddie Research, which says that Nvidia saw an annual 3.4 per cent GPU unit sales increase with Intel climbing 5.1 per cent.

Fudzilla reports, the news was less good for AMD, however, which suffered a 10.4 per cent decline. The company’s desktop APU shipments, however, grew 15 per cent.

34 per cent of all PCs sold in the period had a discrete GPU with the remaining 64 per cent relying on embedded graphics.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
