    It's more like the processing power increased way faster than what's games are demanding nowadays. If you compare the most demanding games (GPU wise) of 2012/Crysis 1 (2007) with the most powerful GPU today and 5 years ago, you will see that GPU processing power moved on way faster.

    So it's easier to have a good graphic card with a low TDP.

    We also had a leap in resolution between 2002 and 2007, with 1920x1080 becoming rapidly a new standard. But between 2007 and today, 1920x1080 is still widely used and enthusiasts with 2560x1600 (or more) are really a minority so the needed processing power didn't increased much.
