Let’s not hide it: Intel, AMD and nVidia are the PC gaming industry as we know it. Qualcomm surpassing the Xbox X series and the three (Intel/AMD/nVidia) pushing, or be pushed, towards RISC PC may change few things. But ARM RISC PC also mean lot of more competition like Samsung working on CPU using 5nm processes… this come at costs of the historical traditional PC’s software database.

Makes you think, I guess.

    Let’s also remember that Apple computers have ARM chips already, and RISC-V might be competitive before long.

    It would be nice to have some choice in architecture without having to give up games.
