While the games actually can run good  in the future patch, i guess it's your decision anyway and if you want to spend for just to bump frame rate 10-20% frame rates and consider a small  resolution increase. I just want to give advice it's better to wait most games will look the same for another 3-4 years. Most developer still use Unreal Engine 4 and Cry 3 engine. It will not make more realistic then like today standard.

I'm already sacrificing in visual fidelity for a stable 60fps. The less I have to sacrifice, the better. I won#t overspend on hardware either. My current card is a 680, so the the switch to the new full Maxwell chip will be quite noticeable and I'm expecting to be able to run most games stable on ultra or close to it. Though I'm never deluding myself again to expect that high end cards will make every game run smooth.

The more complex the games get the less developers will be inclined to optimize everything. I expect recommended hardware specs to increase radically this gen. So there really is no such thing as "strong enough" hardware or unutilized power. Which was my original point.

That's why, my prefference for visual setting is always 60 fps for FPS games and 3rd person action games is always 30 fps. That's rule of thumb for gaming no matter how powerful your card is, most of developer will chose some aspect for type of  games(most 3rd person game have more visual fidelity then the first person games ). But if you preffer performance over quality then you just sacrifice the graphic setting, but if you have the money to spend why not to get both performence and image quality, but then again is over price.
