Pricewatch has thousands of such links, they cant verify each and every link. Its the responsibility of the hardware website to report and correct their own links. Looks like you heard about Pricewatch for the first time and hence the apprehension.


Considering the X700 was launched recently, it will show up soon. You are one hell of an impatient guy. Nvidia 6600 started showing up in retail almost 2 months since they were officially launched, ATI took only 2 weeks. You are complaining on that ? Head over to HardOCP site and you'll find that X700 Pros are already available at BestBuy.

And that price of $250 is inflated. ATI's MSRP is $199, so those guys are violating that.

And please dont try to kid me, show me where I can find a BFG Nvidia 6800 for $250. I'm sure you'll try wriggle out of this now. :roll:

I'll take it by point by point.

I know about pricewatch much longer than you think. I dont go by them for all they do is show up adverts of other companies. Since they are not responsible for the ads put up, especially wrong info, then why would I wonder about credbility of any of them ? Till date froogle hasnt given me inaccurate info. So I'll go by that.

Since this convo didnt come up 2 months ago I'll take whats shown to me today. I can claim that nvidia is making a chipset based on the new PCI-E cards and will be available soon....its not available hence I wont take it into account. Its like waiting for half life 2...we all know the story...I'll believe it when i see it on the shelves.

I dont think questions with regards to my patience needs to be marked in public. If you want that can be taken offline. I am just posting facts. So stick to that.

X700 pro's are not in question. I am talking about the X700. X700 pro's prices are posted in pricewatch itself. So there is no comparisons talks here.

You can speculate what the violations are and so on I am only posting whats available in the market. Once again I reiterate lets stick to the facts.

As fas as ur BFG Nvidia 6800 for $250 question goes Here it is:

I suggest the next time u have the so called facts...back it up. b4 I post I certainly back everything up and till now I have. All u say is claims and blah blah....And also mate being passionate about things is ok as long as u dont let it get to u....

Ha ha Froogle. Keep using it, I'm nobody to influence your personal preference in any way.

Now you are trying to derail the whole argument.

It was not about availability but about price. You claimed that ATI cards were more expensive compared to Nvidia which as I already know is pure BS.

You were trying to make an unfair comparision between 6600 & X700 series which only showed your impatience and bias.

I am just posting facts. So stick to that.

Buddy, you are the one talking out of your imaginary world saying ATI cards are expensive than Nvidia cards. You have yet to come up with such proof to back that up.

I am not claiming anything. Its the other way around. As far as pointing out the news about the X800 SE, that source (X Bit Labs) has been proven correct time & again. I never doubt them.

Another one of your cheap accusations without any proof to back that up. I think I'll report this to mods myself and let them decide about it. :roll:

Yes, price matters. In some situations, it matters the most. I dont know what you mean by "price of India", what was that ? :shock:

Thats not ATI's fault, the retailers price it higher.

Also its also got to do with the fact that Nvidia has been around longer than ATI and has a had a longer relationship with them. Same as Intel has more trust of the retailers than AMD.

I hardly consider myself a fanboy...I like both Nvidia and ATI. The past 5 systems I have assembled has been with the Raedon cards. And those people have been very happy with it. I was purely litigting what is available and what is not. Great that ATI has those cards but if it isnt available in the market easily then whats the use ? Thats all I am coming down to.

Anyways I am getting my BFG NVIDIA 6800 card tomm. And I got it ordered from the very same site that I pasted earlier. And with this I will end my two bits. Like I said being passionate about something is good. But being over zealous about something like this...well...that aint me...and I'll rest with that...peace!

ATI's motto is not as much business as perf.. these guys r pure geeks..u know the funny part..they don't have a marketing team..only distribution n accts guyz..the ads n graphics r done by CODERS.. even site maintenance is done by them.. that explains a lotta things... i got a few hints on what is next.. xpect a 512mb..ddr3..pci-e card using all 16x of memory... 1gb card is in pipe.. LOI stage.. it can transfer ram 2 appz when needed..tryin 2 go 2 48 bit color precision ..4 graphics work..
