WHILE the Philippines is still a market of predominantly AGP (accelerated graphics port) users, video card maker PowerColor is expecting a major market shift from the outdated graphics port to the new and faster PCI Express (PCIE) standard, particularly as it introduces a new range of graphics cards.
The company recently introduced in the Philippines the PowerColor ATI Radeon HD2000 series, all of which are now on the PCIE port. The new graphics cards emphasizes the high-definition market for graphics, particularly the high-end video gaming sector.
PowerColor Asia Pacific marketing manager Kevin Ho said in an interview that there is now a replacement market for PCIE graphics cards as prices of both graphics cards and motherboards go down and as demand for intensive graphics becomes apparent.
