Since such boards start at $199 and their ASP should be considerably higher than that, it is not surprising that NVIDIA earned a lot despite a decrease in unit sales compared to Q3 in 2015. NVIDIA itself attributes its success in the third quarter to sales of its Pascal-based products - the GeForce GTX 1060, 10 as well as their mobile brethren. “Demand was strong in every geographic region across desktop and notebook, and across the full gaming audience, from GTX 1050 to the TITAN X.” Kress, CFO of NVIDIA, during the company’s earnings conference call. “Gaming revenue crossed the $1 billion mark and increased 63% year-on-year to a record $1.24 billion, fueled by our Pascal-based GPUs,” said Colette M. NVIDIA does not officially disclose the number of graphics processors it sells, but the company’s revenue for gaming-grade GPUs skyrocketed to $1.244 billion in its Q3 FY2017 (ended October 30, 2016), so it is logical to assume that shipments of its graphics chips (both for desktops and notebooks) were very strong in the calendar third quarter as well. Jon Peddie Research reports that NVIDIA shipped approximately 9.25 million desktop GPUs (up 39.8% QoQ) and increased its notebook GPU shipments by 38.7% sequentially in calendar Q3.
