sapphire HD4870x2

sapphire HD4870x2 has arrived in india ...its now available at 29.6k (including shipping ) which is cheaper or almost same as the price of GTX280's best available price in india .....looks like nvidia has no card for competition for R770 variants .. atleast in india


  • no one is buying 9800GTX+ still costing 12.5k mininum and avalability poor across the country ....and HD4850 is 3k cheap ...and 9800gtx+ looks only strong on paper with 5-6 fps more ...5-6 fps more for 3k .....who will buy it ??


  • in india HD4870 still costs less than gtx260 ....about 3k,HD4870 is better card than gtx260 anyday ..the only way to beat this card in US was to bring the price of gtx260 equal to HD4870 ...which they did in US ...u get both HD4870 and gtx260 at same price now in US....but here nvidia doesn't seem to care to do so in india ...


  • HD4870x2 cheaper than GTX280 says it all ...

nVidia is giving no competition whatsoever in terms of aggressive price cuts to ATI ...with R770 still to come for budget market ....ATI will be hoping to take over the control completely from nVidia ..even though for a time being....

Sapphire is a company that is respectable enough to qualify for a buy. Its one of the best. But yes, the moment GeCube and Palit enter, we will see aggressive price cuts.

Gainward also making ATi cards, starting from 4-series. I don't know if it is available but its GLH & Golden Samples are few of the best cards available & don't cost much than stock versions but i think they can easily compete with the best ATi cards.

gainward is a division of PALIT (look here )..before they only used to make nVidia chip based card ..but now going to make ATI cards too ....AFAIK Xpertvision (another division of Palit for branding Europe) and Palit cards are identical ...but gainward's golden sample card comes with dual slot cooler and is also pre-Oced to 700MHz against 625 stock ...the card costs 25 euro's more than referance HD4850 so i expect it to cost about 3k more here in india ......it will intereseting option to other OC version like sapphire Toxic...

Earlier the price of HD4850 was 9.2k shown in www.theitwares.com but now from sometime they have changed it to 9.75k + 150shipping charges.

Why so?
