Well the next cycle of CPU technology will have 1 or both of what I'm about to mention.

1. GPU Built into CPU.  With AMD buying out ATI and Rumored Intel buying Nvidia.  We can see highend video built into a GPU/CPU Package.

2. For those old enough to Remember the 386 and 387 processors you will remember that you could install a 386 Processor and if you needed some number crunching power, you would purchase and install a Co-Processor.

Well it look like technology is going back in that direction, some sort of co-processing setup.

You will hear and know about in a year or so and you will remember that you read it in this forum :)
