and also to determine if an upgrade is worthwhile.
I don’t recommend upgrading your graphics card unless the replacement card is at least three tiers higher.
Otherwise, the upgrade is somewhat parallel and you may not notice a worthwhile difference in performance.

The technology does reach a point but manufacturers still need to keep selling, so GFX cards are always being made to make sales,
the point is for the consumer the above statements 3 tier recommendation, but there's always people with money to burn so new
CPU GPU Ram Mobo every year is normal for them, I use a 3 year cycle of replacement/upgrade then after 4-5 years a complete new system.

.

The only point I would make is if, for example, you are considering a GTX570 be aware that they come with more memory now than my 1.28Gb. My card hits 1.2Gb usage in CoD and would probably use more if I had it. I think more memory is worth the stretch.
