What we are missing here is new technology and innovation. Remember that AMD/ATI merger? Maybe one day we wont even need separate CPUs and GPUs, theyll become integrated. That will probably drive the cost down of both and perhaps offer performance benefits.
Also, there will come a point where more and more and computational power every year in GPUs is going to lead to diminishing returns, just as it has with most computer applications. As much as people have debated this subject, even something like Windows Vista runs well on three and four year old hardware, even with Aero on. GPUs will eventually begin to last longer and longer I believe simply because they have become some powerful that its just going to harder and harder to use the power.
