How big is the "gamer" market really? How much is it set to grow? Are "gamers" really going to be buying the high margin kit from Intel or are they going to instead spend their money with Nvidia on the beefiest GPUs? Even today a mid-tier CPU is way more than enough to handle even the most demanding games so long as you've got a beefy CPU. Over the past twenty years games have demanded far more in the way of GPUs than they have in CPUs. That market doesn't make Intel zero dollars or anything but I don't really see it a market that's going to drive a bunch of growth in Intel's revenue or specifically their margins. Long gone are the days where buying the Extreme Edition CPU got some appreciable extra performance in games.
