The evolution of the computer due to the demand for video games

avatar

Hello great community, today I want to talk about technological innovation in the personal computer, it is well known that companies that develop new hardware are at the forefront bringing out new and more powerful versions of the different components of a computer, an example is that in the Intel company we are on the 12th generation if we count the one that is about to come out called "ANDER LAKE", the new DDR5 RAM memories and the 3090 and 3090 TI Graphics cards.

Now what I want to explain is why the personal computer is going in such an accelerated way? No longer releasing new versions every year but almost every six months, what makes the demand for new hardware so demanding?

Well in my title is the answer is "VIDEO GAMES" maybe some people find this hard to believe but here are some numbers for us to understand better.

Annual income of only 5 countries for the video game industry, this does not count hardware for pc or consoles only games sold, which demand current computers, or current video consoles.

That is to say, the video game industry being the most profitable in computers, imposes the demands of better hardware to adapt to the evolution of the same. More and more resolution, more and more particles on screen, better and better 3D animations, photo realism and many other technological aspects.

Of course this own evolution of the video game is given through some mother programs called Graphics Engines, which are the base of where these video games are developed, I feel this more and more demanding in Hardwere so the own companies developers are the first consumers of computers of very high range to be able to show their products as something innovative.

  • Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
  • Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
  • Animal Crossing: New Horizons
  • Madden NFL 21
  • Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla
  • The Last of Us Part II
  • Ghost of Tsushima
  • Mario Kart 8: Deluxe
  • Super Mario 3D All-Stars
  • Final Fantasy VII: Remake

Being computers the main cause of the accelerated development of hardware, more and more powerful, this allows to take certain scientific advantages, since these computers would not exist without the great economic consumption they have today, this allows the development of other scientific areas that need very complex simulations, which are only possible with these computers, when talking about video games do not see it only as a hobby because there are even people who live on it, see you in the next one.
