The Performance PC Dynamic Today
Performance PC bifurcation
• HTPC/Media Center: emphasis on form factor,
decibels, video
• Gaming: emphasis on high-performance
and graphics, configurability
HDTVs drive other consumer purchases
• The inevitable thirst for more HD
experiences follows…
• HD STB/DVR, HD gaming, HD-DVD/
Blu-Ray, HD-capable HTPCs
Today’s Enthusiast Dilemma
• What is the best path to DX10 next-generation gaming experiences?
• Weighing longevity and scalability of enthusiast platform purchases
(cost vs. incremental performance gained vs. lifespan of enthusiast product)
• Best of both worlds: HD HTPC form factors with uncompromising gaming
• Gaming Nirvana: Big-Screen HDTV/DX10.1 Gaming with THX Surround
Sound
