Re: Mature Product
That and price. You can "game" on medium cost/performance hardware pretty well. I kinda agree that it's mature. But there are some improvements, the problem is, they are smaller/less a nessasity, but the *prices* have skyrocketed.
This is mainly because of Whales/big spenders obviously being there to but the "most expensive" products. So the top end has skyrocketed in price, buy the lower end has not dropped, it's stayed level. Which leaves people not upgrading, because the products worth it, are just too expensive, and the products with a small improvement, are rather lackluster (why buy a newer sports car with 0.5 seconds faster 0-60 when you love the one you are driving?).
PS, thankfully AMD coming in and bringing in competitive products means CPU prices might half for the similar performance (or close to), and we will wait to see if the same happens for GPUs.
