It won't happen...

I dunno... people are used to seeing $500 price tags on the high end video cards, and the enthusiasts willing to spend as much as they need to in order to have the best are now used to spending $1000-1200 just on video cards. I can see the price of current high end cards coming down... but I can also see the introduction of new, "higher than high end cards" being introduced at an even higher price point than what we're seeing now.

i don't get people. they spend 1000s on cpus (or atleast above 400-500) yuet don't want to play that much for gpus.

hello.... GPU arte more expensive to make. they are essentially a computer with a mobo, ram and processor. and the processor alone costs more to make than cpus.

What people are you referring to? Most people here probably spend twice as much on a GPU as they do on a CPU.

Plus most people don't upgrade their CPUs every 6 months or so
