Thats 200 euro not 200$...

 

[nvidia]

^Lolz yeah

 

[amitash]

And just to remind u, 200euro is 263$...

 

[comp@ddict]

Thats 200 euro not 200$..

It's running at par, I mean at time of release, the HD4890 and GTX275, both were selling form 249$ as well as 249 Euro, for reasons unexplained.

 

[nvidia]

^^The 4890 costs 200Euro, not 249

So your trying to suggest that It was priced at 249 euro for so called "unexplained" reasons and now your saying there was a price cut ON the 249euro to 200euro which in fact is NOT a price cut as it still costs the same as the dollar price....I dont think it was 249$ AND euro at the time of release...there has been no price cut...It costs the same

 

[comp@ddict]

^^The 4890 costs 200Euro, not 249

I was talking about the time of launch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[amitash]

Yes at the time of launch it was 229Euro...Now its come down b 30euro...Its not really a price cut as its still the same price as the dollar one, ie 250$

 

[nvidia]

I was talking about the time of launch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How relevant is that now?
Here's some more information - the 7600GT was priced that high at the time of launch.
Go ahead make comparisons with the 4890 launch price with that now

What really matters is how much the card costs now, and afaik, its 260$.

 

[comp@ddict]

Okay okay, well, true, it can't matter much.
One strong reason - It ain't there in India yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nvidia]

^^Strong reason what ?

 

[amitash]

^First you argued about price and now u say it doesnt matter because its not available? Then wat was the point of this thread?

 

[dOm1naTOr]

cooldown guyssss
it was a mistake i think
(the euro/$ thing)

 

[nvidia]

it was a mistake i think

It happens every now and then(usually when comp@ddict starts a thread which makes high claims).

^^but he is younger than most guys here, everyone can make mistakes....and he often posts quality content than most older guys here. so don't be dat hard on him guys

To all :

We don't know how far the price of the HD 4890 will drop, but considering the fact that you can find Sapphire's HD 4870 512MB listed at €140,46 and for example Club3D's HD 4870 1GB OC edition for as low as €158,57 we consider that there is still more room for price cuts, should AMD deem them necessary, of course

Nvidia's GTX 275 is still very hard to find in Europe, and Palit's GTX 275 is still the best bet, as this is currently the most readily available, non-reference cooled and the cheapest card around. This one can be found for €213,90

*www.fudzilla.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=13088&Itemid=1

But the Listing in here doesn't shows any sapphire HD4890 @ 148 euro which is around $196. The lowest priced HD4890 is 199 euro which is around $264 & I could not find any Club HD 4890.

*buy.fudzilla.com/eu/?cat=gra16_512;asuch=hd 4890&sort=p

But the palit GTX 275 is priced at 212 euro which is around $281.

From my searches I've found the lowest priced $249 HD 4890 in here but you can get it @ $229 in mail rebate:
*www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp...mc=OTC-Froogle-_-Video+Cards-_-XFX-_-14150359

From my seraches I've found the lowest priced $249 EVGA GeForce GTX 275 in here :

OUCH!

 

[The Sorcerer]

Okay...but did anyone see the power consumption GTX295 and 2 sets of HD4890?? One will need a airy case and a good power supply. So is it really feasible?

 

[comp@ddict]

Yea I do go and make some big claims. Well, jus' waiting for HD4890 X2 and for GTX275 in SLi results, then we'll get talking.

Till then, it's 'idle' time
