however fast the chips get, someone will write a game to use it all.

Sounds like the title of the thread says it all

seems they ran into a Brick wall
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

"however fast the chips get, someone will write a game to use it all. "

or do you mean "eventually"
