The May 2026 Steam Hardware Survey reveals that Radeon RX 9070 XT and 9060 XT graphics cards have finally been registered in the database, nearly a year after their launch.

As spotted by Videocardz, the latest survey data shows that the RX 9070 XT has reached a 1.33% market share, while the RX 9060 XT has reached 0.72%. This marks the first appearance of RDNA 4 GPUs in the Steam Hardware Survey, which runs every month, although the exact number of Steam users polled is never really known. Nvidia alternatives currently hold higher positions on the charts, with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti slightly ahead at 1.73%. GPUs like the RTX 5070 and RTX 5060 Ti also continue to report monthly adoption gains.

The survey data also show that eight-core CPUs emerged as the fastest-growing segment, while six- and ten-core processors both dipped slightly. Still in this segment, AMD continues to increase its share against its competition, currently sitting at 45%.

Concurrently, a volatile pricing market has driven a resurgence in 16GB RAM systems over 32GB configurations, while SSDs larger than 1TB shrank by 1.23% as buyers moved back to smaller drives. Lastly, OS data show Windows rebounding by 0.38% against recent Linux gains, bringing the total market share to 94% Windows, 4% Linux, and 2% macOS. Though the up-and-coming CachyOS distro doubled its share to 0.5%, sitting just behind SteamOS at 0.9%.

Nvidia has partnered with IO Interactive to bundle the upcoming 007 First Light with qualifying GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards. For the first time, the game bundle extends further down the product stack, including RTX 5060 Ti graphics cards. Some previous bundles in the current generation have only applied to RTX 5070 and up. 

The offer applies to desktop GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics cards and higher, including both the 8GB and 16GB variants. For the mobile segment, the promotion starts with the GeForce RTX 5060 laptop GPU. Previously, Nvidia game bundles for the current generation typically began at the RTX 5070 tier.

007 First Light is currently listed for pre-order at $69.99 on Steam and is scheduled for release on May 27th. The game will support Nvidia-exclusive technologies at launch, including DLSS 4.5 and Frame Generation.

The promotion is already underway and will continue through June 10th, 2026, at 11:59 PM PST. Customers who purchase a qualifying GPU during this window will be eligible to receive a digital code that must be redeemed via GeForce Experience or the Nvidia App by July 8th, 2026. The bundle is available through participating global retailers and system integrators.
