Price Drops

[RiseAgainst103]

I am going to buy a 9800 pro, ($199) and was wondering if you think these cards will drop in price much in the next few months?

If anything, they'll go up. Once they release a budget card for the X800 series, or those prices go down.. they'll eventually stop producing 9800 Pros, and the prices will sky rocket.

They are making a X800 SE. However, knowing ATI the X800 SE probably will equal the X600 in performance terms.

Does anyone else's brain hurt?

X600 is the budget PCI-X card, right?

this is why i decided to get that 9800 Pro i was pm'ing u about
not to mention that particular store was going out of business so they had to sell as much merchandise as possible at lower costs..

i'd say i came out pretty darn good with a 9800 Pro for $290 CDN dollars :cheese:

“We have no plans to introduce the RADEON X800 SE to the channel – this is an OEM only part,” an ATI’s spokesman Chris Hook said.

forget the x600 if you buy a radeon x card, might as well buy a x800 then

Actually it's just a PCI-E version of the 9600.
