They could try to mitigate this by doing tricks with the graphics card, but those are a massive pain in the arse for developers.
This actually touches on what I'm doing professionally. We had the clock speed era (with the number of mhz and ghz going up) then we had the multicore era (with the number of cores going up). They are now wanting to do the heterogeneous computing era, where a computer will have several different kind of chips for different things and they all need to work together.
Massive pain in my arse it is.
