    Your right its limited. Its limited by r600-r700 technology. The performance yields from just upping the specs and quantity were incredibly not linear from 4870 -> 5870. 5850 CF is the same speed as this card, yet it has 10% less shaders.

    If AMD just doubled the specs again from r800 to r900, there would be even less of a performance gain.
