Personally I never buy top of the range graphics cards, I buy the upper mid-range cards which have about 15% less performance for around half the price. My 9600GT still plays all recent games quite happily on mid-high settings.

People who buy these ridiculously priced top of the range cards are just getting ripped off, but you know what they say about fools and their money....

Who are you to judge that they are getting ripped off?

You're not being ripped off when you know you pay a premium for the fastest <whatever>. If you're willing to spend the money on it and do not need that money for primary life items, then what's the problem with that?
There are a lot of ridiculous things one can spend money on, and still people buy them. Are they all fools? I would not say they are, when they carefully judged that choice and stood by it.
