The global graphics processing unit (GPU) market was valued over $81 million in 2015 and is expected to surpass $67 million by 2020, says Technavio.
Technavio has announced its latest market research report on global GPU market to its embedded systems portfolio. This market analysis discusses the major drivers and key emerging trends that will influence the growth of the global GPU market during the forecast period. Some of the top vendors listed in this industry analysis include AMD and NVIDIA.
In terms of geographical analysis, APAC was the largest region in the global market and accounted around 37% of the total market share during 2015. China and Japan will emerge as the key revenue-generators.
The growing demand for enhanced visual content by end-users has increased the adoption of integrated graphics processors (IGP) and shared graphics solutions in computer systems. IGPs are part of the motherboard as a chipset like AMD APU or Intel HD Graphics. “These graphic solutions cost less and run graphically intensive programs and 3D games smoothly. The vendors are providing high graphics through integrated GPUs to meet the customer requirements for high memory graphics in their systems,” say Sunil Kumar Singh, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on embedded systems.
