What island of stupid are these people on? In five years your toppy top of the range HEDT will be a mid-range PC and your performance in triple A games will vary from nothing to right home about to dire. I could have made that statement at any for getting on for a couple of decades, I could probably have it carved on my headstone if I didn't think funeral practices are even more stupid.
Twice a year at least the main players will trot out roadmaps, and game developers act as if we are going to have, say it is 2015, 980Ti/5950 performance for the next ten years, let alone five.
I fell off my chair laughing at this comment on some site discussing evolution: God is a game coder. That is how derp this is when you can compare the most stupid character in all fiction to the poltroons that code games.
