Desktop Computing System

The first, and still the largest market in dollar terms, is desktop computing. Desktop computing spans from low-end systems that sell for under $1,000 to highend, heavily-configured workstations that may sell for over $10,000. Throughout this range in price and capability, the desktop market tends to be driven to optimize price-performance.

This combination of performance (measured primarily in terms of computer performance and graphics performance) and price of a system is what matters most to customers in this market and hence to computer designers.

As a result desktop systems often are where the newest, highest performance microprocessors appear, as well as where recently cost-reduced microprocessors.

and systems appear first (see section 1.4 on page 14 for a discussion of the issues affecting cost of computers).

Desktop computing also tends to be reasonably well characterized in terms of

applications and benchmarking, though the increasing use of web-centric, interactive

applications poses new challenges in performance evaluation. As we discuss

in Section 1.9 (Fallacies, Pitfalls), the PC portion of the desktop space seems

recently to have become focused on clock rate as the direct measure of performance,

and this focus can lead to poor decisions by consumers as well as by designers

who respond to this predilection that is why it is better to find out the solution to optimum computer performance.
