How often does it usually take for the price of a video card to halve?
 
These things usually go by Moore's Law so prob around 1.5 years. But it entirely depends on how often the manufacturers bring out new cards.
 
What percent do you think prices will have dropped by then by this christmas?
 
Well, both Nvidia and Ati have planned to release 512Mb cards around xmas time. So the current cutting edge cards will prob drop by around 30%ish maybe.
 
Cool, is there a particular site with news about this stuff so i can keep up to date?
 
www.sharkyextreme.com has regular buying guides.


And if the supply/demand ratio doesn't improve quickly, I wouldn't expect that much of a price drop.


regardless, I seriously doubt you'll see 30% drop by christmas.
