NVIDIA chops GPU prices
In light of the unforeseen success of AMD’s Radeon 4000 series, NVIDIA has come out of the gate swinging with price cuts.
The heftiest chop comes on the 9800 GTX, which has twice previously been discounted for manufacturers to the tune of £60 and $30. Word now comes to us that another $17 cut brings the cost of the board for manufacturers down to $165, with a target MSRP of $199.
Other cuts come in for the new GTX 200 series of boards with a $30 reduction for AIBs on the GTX 260, setting it at $222 manufacturer price. The recommended MSRP clocks in at $329 for a tidy margin. The GTX 280 joins its little brother on the block with a deeper chop of $90 to $392, and an MSRP that is now $499, right in line with the MSRP of the Radeon HD 4870.
