Nvidia dropped its prices significantly to prepare better
for Radeon HD 2900XT launch. It specially adjusted the prices of the GTS series
and today you can buy the 640 MB version for just about 300 to €310 including
shipping and 320 MB costs even less.
You can buy a 320 MB card including shipping and handling
cost for about €256 and the card works at the default frequencies and comes
from Sparkle. The best part is that this card is marginaly slower then the 640
MB card and some €140 cheaper than Radeon HD 2900XT.
This
will certainly put a lot of pressure on the Radeon HD 2900XT as the 320 MB of
Geforce 8800 GTS performs better in many tests or at least comes close to a €140
expensive card. This will be a tough call for consumers.
