By that logic my 580 must of been a steal since it was a massive chip....

Green camp is starting to sound like a certain fruit vendor user base, it makes me hang my head in shame.
If you are referring to this page of the thread then I think you are confusing an economics/business strategy analysis with fanboyism. People CAN make a discussion based on what they believe each company should or will be doing. But nobody is going to be thanking NVidia for selling GK104 at $550.

As for performance estimates, this is a general forum discussion based on rumoured performance of Kepler, if we didn't discuss based on rumours, there would be no thread at all.
