    Every couple of generations, there is always a flagship card to skip.

    For example, the 3870's.... or for nVidia, the GTX280's... or even 480's...

    The reasons differ. Price, competition, etc.

    Will the 6K be a flagship to skip? I'm holding onto my 4870x2, saw no point in going to 5870/5890 (oops mean 5970), and this thread is becoming increasingly depressing as to what the 6xxx flagship will bring to the table.

    Haha I meant 5970, was stuck in the 48xx mode of thinking.
