i still run an 8800gtx on my 1680x1050 monitor and i can still run all games at high settings and about 90% of them with at least 4x AA as well. the sole exception being Crysis which will jnot run at Very High but only on High which looks almost as good. i think it would be safe to say that the 8800gtx is the best aging graphics card ever created considering it is many years old now and still can play games on high with no issue.

but back on topic a $300 price sounds about right for the performance of the card considering it will be around the level of performance that a pair of 4870's (we think) offer and a pair of them cost around $300. but i am looking forward to finally have a new single card faster than a GTX 285.
