of our operating segments is as follows:



GPU Business. GPU Business revenue increased by 47% to $2.52 billion in fiscal year 2008, compared to $1.71 billion in fiscal year 2007. This improvement was primarily due to increased sales of our desktop GPU products and notebook GPU products.  Sales of our desktop GPU products increased by approximately 38% compared to fiscal year 2007, primarily due to growth of the Standalone Desktop market as reported in the 2007 Fourth Quarter PC Graphics Report from Mercury Research.  Our leadership position in the Standalone Desktop market was driven by our GeForce 8-based products.  Sales of our notebook GPU products increased by approximately 114% compared to fiscal year 2007.  Notebook GPU revenue growth was primarily due to share gains in the Standalone Notebook category as reported in the 2007 Fourth Quarter PC Graphics Report from Mercury Research.  Our share gains in the Standalone Notebook category were primarily a result of shipments of products used in notebook PC design wins related to Intel’s Santa Rosa platform used in notebooks.



PSB. PSB revenue increased by 29% to $588.4 million in fiscal year 2008, compared to $454.7 million in fiscal year 2007.  Our professional workstation product sales increased due to an overall increase in shipments of boards and chips.  This increase in shipments was primarily driven by our transition from previous generations of NVIDIA Quadro professional workstation products to GeForce 8-based products.



MCP Business. MCP Business revenue increased by 7% to $710.4 million in fiscal year 2008, compared to $661.5 million in fiscal year 2007.  The increase resulted from an approximate 225% increase in sales of our Intel-based platform products as compared to fiscal year 2007.  We began ramping up shipments of our Intel-based platform products after the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.   This increase was offset by a decline in sales of our AMD-based platform products and sales of products related to our acquisition of ULi Electronics, Inc. in February 2006.

 

CPB.  CPB revenue increased by 8% to $251.1 million in fiscal year 2008, compared to $233.2 million in fiscal year 2007.  The overall increase in CPB revenue is primarily due to increased royalties from Sony Computer Entertainment, or SCE, but was offset by decreases in revenue from our cell phone products and our contractual development arrangements with SCE.
