What? lol, I assume you are still gaming on a 1024x768 monitor then. What a silly statement to make that I had to follow it up with an equally silly one.

His statement is not silly at all. Devs are using cheap (to implement) tricks instead of giving us the high quality detailed textures, high quality detailed animations, high quality detailed geometry that actually cost artist hours (capital) and would give us a rich experience. All the while giving us the least efficient games possible in a flops to quality ratio.
 
The increments mean very little. I cant remember any title that showed having xx.1 as being a major benefit. By the time it matters DX12 will have been released incorporating the incremental featureset and nobody will care.

I was going to state that but then thought about how somebody would come in and tell how great Stalker Clear Sky was on a Radeon vs. the equivalent Geforce of the time. I not trying to down play additional features because I want the best out of my hardware all the time but some things are really just the icing on the cake and not actually the cake.
 
Yes DX11.1 and 11.2 matter if you are trying to sell them and Nvidia doesn't have them this makes me sell more AMD video cards rather than Nvidia video cards.
