Thinking... nice spam, but actually those are some nice prices. Buycomputers and Take2 are often expensive at first, R2700 looks better.

3k I am sorry but that SUXXX! Im gonna wait for 8800GT 256Mb or HD 3850... supposed to be between 10-20% lees in performance and a whole lot less in price!! otherwise its back to a X1950XT

Take 2's pricing:

They're just milking it. Wait for the hype to die down a little bit and im sure prices will stabilize. And the 38XX release can't hurt prices either

256 meg at high resolution is going to kuk off

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

Prophecy has them for R2450, you shouldn't be paying R3000. Give it a few weeks to get some proper stock in SA.

Well I usually only go up to 1280X1024 on my 17", so 256MB at the same clocks and specs will run almost exactly the same as the 512MB card for cheaper. A deal for me, not if you have a new 22" like some people.

Dunno if Inno3D is any good though.

Inno3D are fine, just not that well known here but not a really cheap brand like Legend and Colorful etc.
