Since we're mostly hit by around 30-50 US$ higher price in graphic card products, i extrapolate that the USA MSRP price would be around US$ 499-549. US$ 5xx is kinda a wide range for accurate prediction, but i think my estimation is quite reasonable.

EDIT:

As added information, the first batch of these babies seems quite available, atleast these nVidia AIBs distros have them on the way/already. But no confirmation whether it will be constantly available & continuously resupplied or not.

One more thing, it will be a BEAST in 3DMark Vantage Xtreme.
$500 seems more reasonable but after Cayman comes out it'll still have to undergo a price decrease.

So, the 5870-480-580 chart we saw earlier was the real deal? It showed 40% increase in 3dmark Vantage over GTX 480.
