Wouldnt the price of $649 make the GTX280 roughly the same price as 2 4870's in xfire ?

Any pricedrops for the 9800gtx?
Thinking about getting one..
That article is from 1.5 years ago...that slide was from a few days ago. Maybe its just friday, but Im not making the connection.... :shrug:Quote:

Okay, but the question is now if 2 oc'd 4870 will outperform 1 oc'd GTX 280, that would be interesting to know. What is sure is that the Ati couple will need more juice to do it's job... what's left is how will these $-prices translate into €. If it's really 419€ then this is really nice!Quote:

$450 and $650
Same. However, patience is key in this situation.Quote:

I love the INQ for letting us know about that GT200b tape-out!!!
If the INQ were not around, some of us buyers would be real pissed off when Nvidia releases a cooler, faster, more power-efficient 55nm version 2 months later, or less!
For sure, it will be more power-efficient (nearly 100mm^2 less silicon--exactly the same as 8800GTX/Ultra, and cooler temps). I also think it should be able to clock at least 5% higher, if not 10% given the huge number of transistors/power consumption/silicon die size estate thanks to 55nm.
This has just priced me out of the market, i'll have my 8800GTS O/C card a year in July...was considering an upgrade, now....not.
Bo_Fox the 55nm refresh will more than likely be released in November/December.
And to be honest, the possibility of a 55nm refresh sounds like old news to the ones who have been watching the GPU's "revolution" for a year or so.
History repeats itself ;)
hmmm... this year is going to be a expensive year... 600€ for GT280, 500€ for a new phone, + 1600€ for nehalem.
€500 for phone?, i'm guessing a 3G Iphone?
screw the iphone, im going for the HTC Diamond/Raphael, Samsung SGH-i900 or the Gigabyte GSmart MS808. :yepp:Quote:

IMO those high prices are indicative of the lack of Ati 4xxx series performance... :/
again... :/
Funny how one obviously biased idiot writing a single article can sway the opinions of so many people.
