I can't and won't deny that newer and better cards are just plain better, but old cards can still work well with sane settings unless they're super outdated (460 768mb for example is a tough one these days at 1080p, but works well at 720p).
I run SLI 770 4GB FTW Edition cards, with an eye on a pair of 970OC 4GBs on BF. But I am the guy that ends up building everyone else's PCs, and many guys have super limited budgets, so used 6850 at $40 is hard to pass up for those wanting a dirt cheap gaming box. I've helped a lot of people build capable units for $200-250 :)
