That would be around 514€. You won't find them for less than 540€.
And so on.
Although there is something curious about that...spaniards had to import stuff a few years ago in order to get proper prices...now we could even export as our prices are probably within the best around the EU community. Heck, a few years ago I was buying in UK and now it has gotten soooo expensive that even if pounds = euros we would only be saving a little :rofl::ROTF:
I understand. If GTX 480 was $600, you would say "wow this sounds good for Nvidia". I mean, YOU would say this? :rofl::rofl::rofl:Quote:

So comparing it with current HD5000 prices (in the same shop), we have:
HD5850 => 253€
GTX470 => 330€
HD5870 => 355€
GTX480 => 440€
HD5970 => 560€
So we have the GTX470 priced a little lower than HD5870, and GTX480 between HD5870 and HD5970. Of course, it remains to be seen how will the prices of Radeon cards be affected by this launch, given that their prices are pretty high taking into acount they are 6 months old now. I suppose it will depend mostly on performance of the new GeForce cards.
I don't find those prices unexpected at all. Now we only need to know how those new cards perform (and some other info like power consumption and so). Things are beginning to take shape...:up:
We can expect ATI to drop their prices as GTX470 being even cheaper than a 5870 is a rather impressive thing. Unexpected, totally unexpected.
enough with this fermi thing ...
I dunno,if it's a discount then it's too low,599 yen = ~6.6$ so not worthy...
It would be a pretty sweet deal if it would come boundled with a mouse especially a deathadder though I am kinda reserved..
Why the hell do we have another thread about Fermi?
Thanks Farinorco. Good info :up:Quote:

then dont bother to open fermi related threads.Quote:

Do you really think that those prices are unexpected? :shrug:
I only did a quick and dirty search on the 4frags web, all the merit here is prava, he was the one who actually found and brought the really interesting info...:up:Quote:

You can already now before launch quite safely say this will turn out like last gen, altho AMD looks to be in a slightly better position this time. Still I see the GTX 470 as a good buy if you're looking into upgrading, GTX 480 doesn't look very price/performance efficient at all tho, both HD5870 and HD5970 seems to make more sense from this point of view.

Considering that it's almost certain that AMD will cut 58xx prices, both 470 and 480 better be pretty damn fast cards. If the numbers posted on the Official Fermi thread are true, AMD will rape Nvidia considering price/performance.
Enrico Fermi was a physicist like Tesla, he once offered to take bets during the manhatten project on wether or not their first nuclear test would ignite the atmosphere and just destroy new mexico or the whole world. Ah such a funny guy.
Great this means buy the end of summer I will be able to purchase a nice dx11 card. :)
Hm... It seems like a discount, if they want to give the mouse they will post something like: "Here you :banana::banana::banana:! Have this mouse that cost more than 50 bucks... FOR FREE!" Or just the real price of the mouse...Quote:

Yup, as I was optimistic. 330€ for a GTX470 when 5870 will be for around 300€ or maybe even less means that there won't differ much in performance, if they do at all. We all know that at the same performance, NVIDIA cards cost more money. That said, GTX480 will be...what? 30% ahead? Even that is still in the range of an OCed GTX295, which IMO is a shame considering that ATI has put more or less the same power a 4870X2 had at 60% of its power consumption plus an awesome overclocking room, with a quite small chip considering NVIDIAs option...Quote:

Actually, somebody posted those prices on the spanish forum I am part of so I put them here because I thought they were interesting :)Quote:

Seems like we're getting conflicting reports.......again.
Looking at the Galaxy website, the GTX 480 has 512sp, and not 480.
Maybe there's an "Ultra" version with the full SP range?
Yeah, I frankly don't care at this point, it'll be what it'll be in about a week anyway :). A 512 version would rock though!Quote:
