The GT300/Fermi Thread - Part 2!

i think ati could have sold quite some additional 5800 cards if they would have reduced the price 50-100$ which would have resulted in higher net profits... but they were yield limited, so it made perfect sense not to lower the price...

Yeah, exactly, yields were bad, so the cards cost more to make, and the availability was low enough to keep high prices.
