The Scale of the Opportunity
The global gaming community is a technological goldmine waiting to be unlocked. With over 1.8 billion PC gamers worldwide, this network represents one of the largest, most powerful collections of hardware ever assembled. Each gamer’s rig, equipped with advanced GPU processing power and storage capabilities, was designed for high-performance gaming — but for most of its lifecycle, this potential would go untapped for most of these high-performance PCs.
Quantifying this $2 Trillion Treasure Trove
To grasp the scale of what we are talking about, consider this: a modern gaming PC with high-end hardware typically costs between $1,500 and $5,000. Multiply even the least figure in that range by the 1.8 billion gamers worldwide, and the market value for their gaming PCs exceeds $2.7 trillion, sitting on desks in homes worldwide. Yet, studies suggest that the majority of these machines operate at only 20–30% of their capacity. In simple terms, an estimated $2 trillion worth of computational power sits waiting to be utilized to its full capacity.
This underutilization stems from the way most gamers use their hardware — active for some hours a day when they are playing games, leaving their GPUs dormant for the whole remaining time of the day. GAIMIN identifies this as a massive opportunity, transforming what’s essentially a scarcely-leveraged potential into a vital resource.
