I don't understand it either, do people actually buy every new generation of card? I just wait until I can't play the games I want at the detail level I want. Let's see, "recently" I've had 8800 GTS -> GTX 460->GTX 460 SLI->Radeon 7950 Crossfire (only sold due to Bitcoin mining making the cards worth MORE on the used market than what I bought them for)->Radeon 280x Crossfire (sold again).
I'm going to be buying either one of these new generation cards or a used 970/980/290x/390x either way, but I'm hopeing for a half decent GTX 1080 or 1070 to buy, if there isn't a big difference I'll buy the 1070 with the idea of possibly picking up another down the road.
I keep my cards for 3 years on average
