How much G80 will cost?

[Nv40]

about How much the new lineup of Nvidia Dx10 cards will cost?

WHat rumours say ,Any hope for a GT or GS version that doesnt cost more $700+ but between $300- $400 ?

I just miss the times when an enthusiast card could be bought for $300-$400.. we need the R600 now. :(

[Bearclaw]

I'm not all that sure but I hope is isn't too expensive....err.

[nV`andrew]

probably $350-$400 especially at the start maybe even more

that will be awesome if true... but with 750MEgs of high quality ram, i just dont see how they will do it ,more when The rumours say ATI will not release anything until 2007. i was thinking that Nvidia Dx10 lineup is not a replacement for their Dx9 line. but a another more level in their high end.

[Mr_LoL]

I guess because its new tech, it will probably be around $600. How much did the 6800ultra cost when it released? cant remember that.

[crainger]

I'm guessing $1200-$1400AUD

[Fotis]

I guess-hope not more than 650$.

[Bearclaw]

I hope it isn't too much. As for you rich bastards with nice jobs...screw you ahha.

[supra]

I'm guessing $1200-$1400AUD

yea its gonna suck for us ozzies :(

[DRen72]

I am guessing $599.99 for the 8800 GTX to start.

[harshw]

$600 in USA

£600 + VAT in "Rip-Off" UK

[fatal1ty]

I too would say $650 - $700 for the top end card, $599 for the next in line.

[stevemedes]

It's gotta be at least $550 USD

Yup. And if few available in the 1st days, expect higher than that still :thumbdwn:

Thats what I estimate... I plan on getting two! :D

[nekrosoft13]

didn't some leaked "news" said that top of the mine would be $650? thats MSRP, actuall prices online will be much higher.

every store will try to rip everyone off

With Vista coming out in a few months (supposedly), and PCI-E 2.0, quad cores and DDR3 based system ram due by Q3 2007, I don't see the point in upgrading next month.

Thats only if you shop at overclockers uk. Those clowns are rip off merchants.

Huh? By that logic you should never buy any computer equipment because within 9 months (or more, which is how far away Q3 07 is) there will always be something faster. And getting a G80 is just getting Vista ready because you'll need at least G80/R600 to support Vista's DX10, so that's actually an argument for buying this right now.

If the rumors are true this is going to be a perfect time to upgrade because it's going to be such a huge performance increase that, relative to other recent releases, it's useful life is going to be significantly longer (jakup's rig being the major exception:)). My only issue is whether I can justify the cost at launch or if I wait for cheaper models like I have the last two generations.

[$n][pErMan]

Id pay no more than $600 tops. I'll wait it out for a few months for supplies to increase and prices to drop. I have waited this long for my big upgrade so waiting longer is not gonna hurt me at all :p
