Intel consistently improves computer performance year over year for everyone, from students to artists, business people to gamers. Not surprisingly, Intel is also critical to your success at the most intensely demanding activity for any computer: PC Gaming. Enter for a chance to win a high performance, Intel powered, gaming computer from Intel and Best Buy.
All gamers are welcome
What kind of gamer are you? It’s been said that variety is the spice of life and there are many kinds of PC gamer. Some people stick exclusively to simple PC games that work on any machine; others prefer highly demanding PC games they play on custom built water-cooled machines with the fastest Intel processor available. A recent study concluded that there are six distinct types of PC gamers:
- Alpha: Highly enthusiastic, cross-platform, social, influential, and competitive gamer; high knowledge of PC components especially as it affects gaming.
- Purist:Â PC-centric, preferring stationary, immersive gaming; likely to customize PC hardware.
- Enthusiast:Â passionate about the latest gaming trend, loves PC Gaming but also mobile/smartphone gaming; moderate hardware knowledge
- Pragmatist:Â hobbyist preferring stationary/solitary gaming; knowledgeable about hardware but pragmatic about which computer works for their needs
- On-the-go:Â gaming on the go is most important; satisfied with easy to use PC products
- Casual:Â gaming is a quick escape and usually a stationary activity; not very knowledgeable about PC hardware
Think about where you fit into this framework, and what kind of games you most like to play.
