The industry seems to be rhyming with the old 3dfx days where the low and mid tier were completely ignored and gamers were being squeezed for money with only high end really being available same worth anything.
Absolutely! And because this is Gen 1 of AMD's chip let design architecture, whatever isn't the high end is more of a last gen equivalent (as in near identical performance) over even an incremental upgrade.
I wonder how much longer this can go on for.
