As far as I am aware the PC gaming hardware market has never been stronger than it is now.<p>PC gaming isn&#x27;t going anywhere, the slowdown in PC sales is more about the lower powered general-purpose computers people buy from Dell, HP etc. to put in their homes for general browsing&#x2F;word processing&#x2F;email etc. Those kinds of PCs have been and are being largely replaced by the use of tablets and smart phones.<p>Also individual hardware components like CPUs, motherboards and graphics cards generally aren&#x27;t included in these declining numbers. It&#x27;s more about full systems from manufacturers like those I mentioned above.
