Hello techies!
With the current generation of consoles (finally!) nearing the end of their life cycle, there should also be a leap in PC gaming quality, once we're not limited by DX9 and low VRAM of the XBox 360 and PS3, right?
Is it generally predicted that we'll be moving past 1080p as the mainstream resolution standard?
Beyond-full-hd monitors are relatively very rare at the moment. Would the current top-end video cards with 3GB VRAM be able to properly deliver 4K resolutions (3840 x 2160 or 4096 x 2160) already?
I currently have a Crossfire setup of AMD 5870 cards, and I'm pretty sure I won't need to upgrade as long as I'll be playing on 1080p. I'm wondering if series 8 or 9 will be tailored for higher resolutions...
