Too true.
I was once fixated with getting high FPS but now realise that if it's smooth is perfectly OK, even if it's 15-20fps.
It's just disappointing when you spend a little money on hardware upgrades it does not necessarily translate into more FPS or the FPS that you keep reading about!
One just has to accept that some megascenery is going to kill your pc and you can't use it to its intended level.
Maybe one day some genius will resolve that.

PS If I was a childless single man maybe the excess cash might get me the performance I'd like!
