NVIDIA has a significantly larger market share for HPC [1] (select accelerator for category).

That's not my take-away from the chart, especially if you normalize by performance share. "Other" is the clear winner, and AMD has slightly more performance share than NVIDIA.

Good point. I was looking at the "Family" aggregation which doesn't list AMD in the performance share chart, which was a bit misleading.

AMD hardware is much more cost efficient on software that has not yet been developed. If you are planning on not using GPUs, definitely go with AMD.
