For discrete graphics, the key driver for market growth will be in GPUs with high memory. The increase in graphics requirements from the growing PC games market is expected to drive significant demand for high memory GPUs.
As for geographical trends, the APAC (Asian Pacific) region is expected to be the main driver for GPU growth accounting for 38% of total market share by 2020. They will continue to dominate the market in the next four years thanks to the growing popularity of PC gaming and the technology focused customer base.
