As usual that's not how to compare EU->USD pricing, they are entirely different markets with EU having high taxes, cheapest HD 7970 for example are selling for like 480~500 EUR in Germany and in US it's $549.
Preorder prices are usually a lot higher and can jump up/down very suddenly but based on this I'd still guess it's targeted for at least $549.... which would be a shame. Totally expected though at this point.

If all people would share opinions in an objective manner, the world would be a friendlier place
In Europe it's parity 1€ = 1$ in prices.
So if the card it's 579$ we pay 579€ currency.
The worst it's that this applys even in coutrys that not have € currency which is very sad.
So i had to pay 220€ for my 2500K which is in $ about 270$.
A 7970 it's also about 550€ in $ about 690$
That's not nice at all....
