Graphics cards are going to see a massive increase in processing power over the next year (50-80% 14nm and FinFET). It should help push VR and 4k into the mainstream without spending $2000. DDR4 has come down price faster than any other memory platform in history. We might see SSD's approach 10ยข a gig.

The only laggered is in x86 chipsets, which I don't expect to see any amazing advancements or massive price drops.

I think the future of VR and 4k looks good from a hardware point of view. Question is will VR be any fun? I have higher hopes for Holo Lens than the other various VR platforms.

When I saw the holo lens demo I, for the first time in a long time, felt like I was seeing the future.
