For the first time, the monthly Steam Hardware Survey shows a majority of gamers are playing on systems with at least 10GB of VRAM.

Valve’s Steam Machine is one of the most-expensive pieces of hardware we’ve seen in years, but it’s already about to be beaten.

TL;DR: Steam’s July 2026 survey shows 16GB VRAM GPUs now slightly outnumber 8GB ones (25.9% vs 25.3%), driven partly by better Radeon reporting and new RDNA 4 cards, though most gamers still use under-16GB cards and 8-12GB GPUs remain common.
