That video has some good analysis but around the 27 minute mark he starts talking about the poor sales of the RX480/580 by again referencing the Steam Surveys as support for his analysis but doesn't have the 2016 numbers. He simply points to last quarter revenue numbers from Nvidia as proof of his hypothesis for the future. However if you look at this year's numbers for AMD's graphics division you'll see they're waaaay up despite AMD being almost absent from the Steam hardware survey. So what's going on? Crypto currencies. AMD's current GPUs lend themselves very well to mining crypto currencies and as a result they have been virtually unavailable on the market for the last year. This is both good and bad for AMD. In the short term it's getting money but in the long term it's losing market share and mind share to Nvidia. The conclusions drawn in the video might be correct but only time will tell. Things will also be interesting when all those RX 480/580 GPUs start getting dumped on ebay as the DAG file sizes for crypto currencies exceed their RAM capacity. That probably won't be until 2019 or later.
