^ By "next" you mean the R800? Or the RV770? Because even the Radeon HD4850 that will sell for ~$200 is around 40% better for games than the 9800GTX.

 

You do realize we are at the point that a stronger GPU isnt even needed. What is the point of being able to run Crysis at 300fps?

 

Actually, nVidia's latest card, the $649 GTX 280, can barely average 30 fps in Crysis at 1920x1200 (comparable to 1080p), high quality: http://techreport.com/articles.x/14934/13
