It's more a very brief freeze than an FPS drop. I get the same effect at the exact same point with a HD 5870.
As regards fanatics and their upgrades, I bought a new PC this year that definitely qualifies as 'fanatic'. The thing is the manufacturers know what they're doing. Unless you go for the absolute best equipment, they price things very cleverly. Once you've bought an expensive graphics card, it feels like a waste to put it in a crap computer. Plus, a 64-bit O/S with tonnes of RAM is the future. The hardware makers just add in the inconvenience of an upgrade in 2 years to their prices.
