Steam hardware survey numbers show a good percentage distribution of gaming PCs vs non-gaming.

When I actually took 10% figure as a estimation, I took the lowest denenominator possible. While in reality Steam survey shows that

32.61% of Steam gamers game at 1080p resolutions.

And 4,18% game at above 1080p resolutions, which clearly shows the percentage of high-end pcs.

And at least 20% of Steam gamers have 2GB or more of VRAM,.

So we have 32.61% of Steam gamers gaming at 1080p resolutions and 20% of Steam gamers having 2GB or more of VRAM. This suggests that at least 20% of Steam PCs are equivalent or better than PS4.

So when I am taking 10% figure as an estimation, I am acutally being pretty humble as i should take 20% according to Steam hardware survey.

Actually it shows that 32.61% have a 1080p monitor not that they game at 1080p. Also many of the low end cards tend to have versions with bloated VRAM, nowadays 2GB and many people tend to fall for that, that's why you can always see such practice in every single family line on the low end segment.

The people that aren't buying PCs are not the people that play games. Those people aren't buying PCs because they've already got iPads.

Other tablets are available.

Don't be hyper-sensitive. Of course I know other tablets are available.

Shame on you for not seeing a Topgear reference.

....Forgive me. I'm busy reviewing applications... -_-

Still alive. If I had a dollar for every single time I heard that PC gaming is dying, I'd probably be richer than Bill Gates.
