Some of them are...just. Give it a few weeks, I'm sure the price will come down.

There's a couple of models under £200 in there. How come everyone wants miracles every time a new card is released? It's priced at exactly the right level given its comparitive performance with all the other cards available. And don't forget that nvidia's larger die sizes mean their cards are inherently more expensive to produce than AMDs, so you're unlikely to see miraculously cheap cards from nvidia, tbh...

Yep the Onus is really on AMD to bite the bullet and take a hit to their margins in order to outsell Nvidia. If they could bring the 6950 1GB to market at something like £185 that would really put the ****s up Nvidia and probably steal a huge amount of sales from what is an excellent card (the 560ti)

Also posted in the other thread but ATI are set to slash the prices of the 6870, 6950 1gb/2gb models in wake of the 560 being released.

If its accurate a 6950 2gb model would set you back £207.

^ In that case I'll wait before I purchase a 560Ti, nVidia is sure to cut prices, thus a price war starts!

Is there a reason you keep missing Aria off these pricing lists?
