Just like "ancient" design of the internal combustion engine will have to be replaced by more modern and more efficient technologies, future GPU designs will eventually have to be replaced and manufacturing principles revisited. We cannot continue to rely on die shrinks because eventually we will not be able to go below a certain number (i.e., the length of 1 atom?) I am not a physicist or a chemist, so my knowledge in this area is limited. I am not entirely sure when this physical limitation will occur. http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/07/optical-lithography-can-go-to-12.html
