AMD general manager Rick Bergman has told VentureBeat that the PC gaming market is still "strong".

"There is a very compelling story on why PC gaming is so healthy now. When you consider shipments of high-end gaming rigs and strong sales of online games such as World of Warcraft, you can see how strong it is." Said Bergman.

"The gaming platforms tend to be the first place where games appear, but we are in about 80 percent of the gaming consoles sold, since we're in the Microsoft and Nintendo consoles." He added.

AMD acquired ATI Technologies in 2006 and has recently launched the ATI Radeon HD 4800 series of graphics processing units.
