    The Radeon HD 6970 will sell in Europe as of 5 AM Wednesday for €275, while Radeon HD 6950 will sell for just €225 euro.
    IMO can't be real... 360$ for 6970 sounds bs... extremely cheap... gtx580 gonna just die in that case... since all 6xxx series have perfect crossfire scaling.

    GTX 580 isn't going to die, nvidia will drop the price without a doubt in a day or two if the 6970 is at $360 or $370. It'll be like the HD4800 vs GTX260/GTX280 scenario all over again pricing reaction from nvidia.

    look how big their die is and how low can they lower it to still be profitable is the question ... anyway .. if those pricing are real i can see lots of 6900 crossfire setups

    Exactly so I'm waiting to see how nvidia responds if the 6900 series is priced that cheaply. Can't do consumers harm either way

    GF110 is larger... 550mm2.

    I thought they moved to Chil, which I think are on the 68x0s.

    Once the government outlaws your guns your life is forfeit. You're already dead, it's just a question of when they are going to get around to you.

    It's not even 360$... if it's 300€ in Europe it will be around 300$ in US
