GPU- and XPU-accelerated machines generated an estimated $137.35 billion in the second quarter of 2026, equal to 69.1% of server revenue while representing 16.1% of units, The Next Platform calculated from IDC data. IDC put overall quarterly server sales at $166.32 billion, up 52% from a year earlier and 35.6% sequentially. GPU-system revenue reached $87.4 billion even as unit shipments fell 10.7% to 513,453, reflecting a shift toward costlier rack-scale systems. IDC reported an average GPU-system selling price of $170,220, up 43.5%. Some combined shipment and revenue figures are the publication's estimates rather than figures directly reported by IDC.
