One of the things you'll see at the E3 gaming convention in June is that many game demos provided for attendees to evaluate are typically running on a PC. In fact, at E3 2014, most of the games seemed to be running on Alienware gaming desktops, but offer Xbox One and PlayStation 4 controllers. Sure, support for PC games is mentioned in most game pitches, but you can't help but feel that the consoles take center stage at the event.

That's about to change. PC Gamer magazine and AMD have banded together to provide a special event focused solely on PC gaming. Dubbed as the PC Gaming Show, the event will take place on Tuesday, June 16, 2015 at the Belasco Theater in downtown Los Angeles and hosted by Sean 'Day[9]' Plott. Scheduled individuals and companies expected to attend include Blizzard Entertainment, Cloud Imperium Games and Cliff Bleszinski of Boss Key Productions.

This is good news for PC Gaming.
 
Usually the PC stuff was scattered about, I wonder why they brought it together?
 
That's cool. I don't use the computer as my main means of gaming but it us undeniable how important it is now. It only makes sense.

I think it was PC Gamer magazine and AMD idea to brought them all together. I bet, PC Gamer Magazine, and AMD decided to bring it to together because their readers, and AMD's CPU buyers are interested in a separate event for PC Gaming instead of having it all scattered about where it is more difficult to follow all the news on new PC Games, and video cards and CPUs made by AMD for Gaming PCs.

By associating themselves with this gaming event, it seems to me like AMD probably wanted to highlight, once again, the general idea that they are better for gaming than Intel.

I agree, AMD wants to associate that they are better than Gaming than Intel. I think AMD's logo, and brand/theme seems more geared towards Gaming than Intel which seems to be targeting poorer consumers more by having lowend Intel chips like Atom and Celerons pre-installed on lowend Android tablets and smartphones, Google Chromebooks, cheap Windows 8.1 tablets, and netbooks.

While AMD CPU's and videocards are found more on budget gaming PCs in ther $500-700 price range.
