yep, it does cost more but if you think about it graphics cards in my opinion will one day not be worth upgrading, cause i think graphics will only get soo good untill you wont need another higher graphics card. I think when it hits 1gb video cards thats all anyone would need, RAM i think when it hits 5gb or so anything more will be overkill same with a processor when it get to about 10ghz..
look at doom 3 which will run perfect on a 256mb card. i just think computer technology will hit a point were doing anything more will just be overkill.
sure games wil evolve greatly with more detail, dynamic lighting, particals, sprites, textures, etc... but eventually games won't be able to get much better looking, just maybe more vast maps and be able to view more model's / particals / etc.. on the screen.
/\ Just my opinion.
