I'm guessing that nvidia had got an amazing card up their sleeve, hidden from public view until AMD release a card that the public believes is more worthy of competition
AMD regaining some market share can only be a good thing for consumers.
AMD are releasing quality cards and will be for a foreseeable future. Nvidia might have something up their sleeve which they will reveal but AMD's momentum will be difficult to stop.
It will be interesting to see if AMD can maintain this market share or if it was just a one-of with the release of the Fury X, Fury, and R9 series of cards which had large sales pre-launch but quickly withered after the reviews started pouring out (good cards, mind, just not up to the hype AMD lead us to believe).
In the meantime, AMD financials for the same quarter for the graphics and CPU (err APU) division was interesting. Slightly larger sales yes, but with a larger loss at the same time. AMD also once again had their profit margin (gross margin) drop. AMD now makes less than half as much profit on their sales as NVidia does. It is like AMD is selling at cost and taking losses just to maintain some sort of market share.
