Just think about it the mainstream video cards and the top enthusiast card only offer less than a 1% improvement in frame rates in current games that a few extra hundred dollars for a lousy 1 or 4 more fps, so where does that leave us?.
Even new video cards in development show a 1% improvement so i won't be buying a new video card anytime soon unless there is a 40% improvement in frame rates even with pci ex 2.0+ the improvement is minimal, i think we hit a brick wall performance wise.
As long as my evga gtx 280 is below 40% framerates of new cards not to mention that ati and nvidia were planning together to keep flagship video cards up in price.
Unless something drastic happens in research i really think both video card mfgs are in trouble.
