Actually, a couple things wrong with your post. One, prices always go down, the latest and greatest video cards, such as the 8800Ultra is a waste of money and you can get for half of that price a 8800GTX which if you OC runs like an Ultra. Two, GDDR5, by the the time that comes out parts will be cheaper, so things will cost less. A good computer that can run high tech games, like Crysis I can get for $1760 (CDN). Cheap huh. Oh and currently the 8800 is GDDR4.
