Valve Survey Shows Few Gamers Switching to Vista
XP still rules, according to the developer. About a week ago, Valve began a new survey for users of their Steam service. They've kindly put up a constantlyupdating results page open to the public, and the answers provide some interesting information on PC gamers' habits. The info we've garnered is based off current results for the survey as of 2:30 PST, with a bit over 380,000 users surveyed.
About 55% of those surveyed use NVIDIA video cards. Only 32% use ATI, although Valve and ATI likely expect this number to go up some with the recentlyannounced deal between the two giving ATI Radeon users free access to a couple of Steam products. Perhaps most interesting is the data on operating systems. A whopping 93% still use Windows XP, with only 5% having made the jump to Vista. Of that already small number, only 1.24% of total users have DirectX10 capabilities enabled on their Vista PC. It's still very early in the Vista lifespan, but, apparently, gamers aren't jumping on the DX10 bandwagon all that quickly. Remember, this is just a snap photo of the results from the survey currently. They're continuing to be updated by Valve as more surveys come in, so if something flip flops, we'll let you know.
