I quote from the article:

"At the same time, AMD is expected to announce 'Spider', a gaming platform based around a pair of RV670 GPUs, AMD's RD790 chipset and its Phenom quad-core processor family."

Don't get me wrong I like the idea, so long as its not over the £600 mark (or not much over it) I can see me getting one, as the main use for my PC is gaming, having a PC which games makers can aim for would make my and there life's easier.

And lets face it, if your PC is fast enough for todays high end games, its fast enough to run Vista & Office 2008 (just).

I wonder if it will encroach on Shuttles market, which is were I was looking at getting my next PC (barebones).
