The Steam hardware survey is never representative of what the average purchase is. Most computers do not have dedicated graphics, let alone 74% of them using NVIDIA GPUs

  For someone who knows nothing about Steam, can you say more about what the hardware survey means? If it doesn't indicate resolutions in actual use, what does it indicate?

    Stats from Steam, Since Steam Is for Gamers only, you are only looking at Gamer focused survey, then of coz you get results where 70% of PC has dedicated GPU.
