As computer games
became graphically and computationally complex in the 1990s, with games such
as Quake and Tomb Raider using hardware accelerated graphics, the concept of
building PCs specifically for gaming was born. As such, the power of a
gaming PC's GPU has always been the top priority. In the early and mid 90's,
companies such as Voodoo PC, Falcon Northwest and Alienware, focusing
entirely on gaming and high-end PCs were launched. Games like The 7th Guest
and Myst helped CD-ROMs and sound cards become far more popular. |
