Unfortunately that is not true. the example I gave you is for a mage, and a fire mage is the most crit dependent class/spec in wow now. The other classes have it even worse as far as gems are concerned . Example: Ret paladin +40 str = 68 dps (enhanced further by MOTW/BOK) +40 crit = 18 dps. Even making gems gave +80 crit it would be questionable if it's worth using them over 40 str but 40 crit rating is just laughable :( It's like that for most classes so unless the gem socket is really great you should just put the same gems in all sockets...
